Data Migration

  • Artykuł

FastTrack can help you migrate mail and file data in your source environments to Office 365 (Exchange Online, SharePoint, and OneDrive).

The type of assistance we provide depends on your number of Office 365 licenses:

  • For Office 365 tenants with 150-499 licenses: FastTrack provides migration guidance only; you're responsible for performing the data migration. We guide you through documentation that helps you plan and use free tools to perform a self-service migration.
  • For Office 365 tenants with 500 or more licenses: FastTrack provides migration guidance and data migration services. We provide guidance to help you plan your migration, configure your source environments and Office 365 tenant, and use our data migration services to migrate your data. You create and schedule your migration events. We launch migration events in accordance with your schedule, monitor their progress, and provide status reports.

Note

For education plans, your paid faculty/educator licenses are eligible for data migration services. A1 students are only eligible when migrating with paid faculty/educators and when also migrating from Exchange or Google Workspace. For education plans, your paid faculty/educator licenses are eligible for data migration services for content migrations. This includes data within Box, Dropbox, Google Drive, and file share.

Considerations

  • Your source environments must meet specific expectations in order to migrate data to Office 365. For more information, see Office 365 on the source environment expectations for Exchange, SharePoint, and OneDrive.
  • We require appropriate access and permissions to your source environments and Office 365 tenant to provide data migration services.
  • Our data migration services aren't designed or intended for data subject to special legal or regulatory requirements. As we migrate your data, it can be transferred to, stored, and processed anywhere that we maintain facilities (except as otherwise provided for your FastTrack migration project).

Note

For GCC customers, Gmail, Exchange, and file share migrations are supported. Box, Dropbox, and Google Drive migrations aren't supported.

  • We can’t guarantee the speed of mail or file migrations.
  • Unforeseen issues (like unreadable or corrupt items in the source environment) might prevent our ability to migrate of some of your data items.
  • External factors beyond our control (like changes to third-party application programming interfaces (APIs)) can result in changes to, delays in, or suspension of our data migration services.

Migration service availability

  • For Commercial customers: We provide data migration services 24 hours a day, seven (7) days a week (24x7) (English only).
  • For US Government customers: We provide data migration services 24 hours a day, five (5) business days a week (24x5).

Migration to Exchange Online

When you choose to use FastTrack to migrate your email to Exchange Online, we provide migration guidance and data migration services. We provide guidance to help you plan your migration, configure your source environments and Exchange Online, and use our data migration services to migrate your mailboxes. You create and schedule your migration events. We launch migration events in accordance with your schedule, monitor their progress, and provide status reports. When your migration events complete, you can expect mail from appropriately scheduled and eligible source mailboxes of your migrated source environments to Exchange Online.

Considerations

  • Before migration, you must complete FastTrack core onboarding for Exchange Online.
    • If you performed onboarding yourself, you must pass the required checks and prerequisites. Refer to Exchange Online for details.
  • FastTrack migrates only to active Office 365 mailboxes.
  • You must satisfy specific requirements if you intend to migrate from an on-premises Exchange environment. Refer to Hybrid deployment prerequisites for details.
  • Each source environment must be on the latest service pack (SP) and rollup (RU)/cumulative update (CU) level for the respective product in the source environment.
  • Distribution lists (MailEnabledGroup objects) and external contacts (MailEnabledContact objects) that exist in your on-premises Active Directory aren’t a part of mailbox data migration. However, you can synchronize them using Microsoft Entra Connect.

Source environments

Our data migration service migrates data from these source environments:

  • A single or multiple Active Directory forests with single or multiple Exchange organizations (each Exchange mail system must be Exchange 2010 or greater).
  • Google Workspace environment (Gmail, Contacts, and Calendar only).

The following table presents migration details specific to each source environment:

  • Provide guidance to help you enable Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) mail routing coexistence between your source environments and Exchange Online, if applicable.

Your responsibilities

You perform standard activities during the migration project. Refer to the data migration responsibilities information in Exchange Online for details.

You also perform the following activities, specific to Exchange migrations:

Teams channels and Microsoft 365 Groups must be pre-provisioned by the customer before they can migrate data into these destination types. Teams and Microsoft 365 Groups impacts your permissions on the file destination location. Teams and Microsoft 365 Groups are built to allow collaboration. The Teams channel or Microsoft 365 groups determine who has access to those files when migrating into those destinations. FastTrack doesn't add end users or groups to any Teams channel or Microsoft 365 Groups permission during migration.

FastTrack responsibilities for Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 Groups migrations

Our FastTrack Specialists perform standard activities during the migration project. Refer to the data migration responsibilities information in Microsoft Teams for details.

Your responsibilities

You perform standard activities during the migration project. Refer to the data migration responsibilities information in Microsoft Teams for details. You also perform the following activities, specific to Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 Groups migrations:

  • Provision all Microsoft Teams channels and Microsoft 365 Groups as targeted by your migration events.

Note

FastTrack doesn't pre-provision Microsoft Teams channels or Microsoft 365 Groups. FastTrack doesn't add end users or groups to Microsoft Teams channels or Microsoft 365 Groups. You must add your end users or groups to all Microsoft Teams channels and Microsoft 365 Groups before you migrate data into those destinations so those end users have access to those newly migrated documents

To learn more about FastTrack migrations, go to the FastTrack Migrations Learning Center.

Note

You first need to be registered with FastTrack in order to access the FastTrack Migrations Learning Center. To register, go to Microsoft FastTrack Registration.
