Great day with the Dell team at the Dell ETC in Round Rock.

We appreciated the opportunity to spend time with Dell teams and talk about how Cirrus Data helps simplify data mobility to Dell environments. And yes, we brought the Cirrus Data trucks.

The Cirrus Data trucks had a few enhancements over the summer, making them a lot more versatile. We’re not just moving block storage anymore. Cirrus Data now supports unstructured data and virtual workloads, and we recently added disaster recovery to the mix.
More ways to move data. More ways to support Dell customers. The same proven, tested Cirrus Data platform.

Thanks to the Dell ETC team for having us and to everyone who stopped by to connect.

One Platform. Multiple Solutions. Complete Data Mobility.

Three of the most widely used VMware migration tools now have the same problem.

Microsoft updated its Azure Migrate documentation to recommend alternatives when VDDK is unavailable. Red Hat published a support article about download failures. Nutanix Move users are reporting 404 errors.

Broadcom's position: VDDK "was never included with a software purchase." Migrations are "an unlicensed use case."

Cirrus Data Solutions does not use VDDK, VMware snapshots, or Changed Block Tracking. Our patented TDI technology operates at the block layer. It works regardless of what Broadcom decides to restrict next.

Architecture decisions made years ago are paying off now.

Congratulations to Roman Blazecka on earning his Cirrus Data CMC Professional Certification today. 🙌

This certification represents more than 10 hours of hands-on work and training completed over the summer, followed by successfully demonstrating the skills required to deploy, migrate, cut over, and manage workloads with Cirrus Data Cloud and Cirrus Migrate Cloud.

Roman put in the time, did the work, and earned it.

Congratulations, Roman, on becoming CMC Professional Certified. 🏆

Your exit strategy should not require permission from the company you are leaving.

And with Broadcom’s restricted access to VDDK and many organizations facing higher VMware renewal costs, migration planning deserves a closer look.

Your ability to leave should not depend on technology controlled by the platform you are leaving.

Plan ahead and choose a migration solution that operates independently of the source hypervisor environment.

In his recent blog, Cirrus Data CTO Sammy Tam explains why Cirrus Data’s migration architecture does not tie you to a specific hypervisor. You have the flexibility to migrate to the environment that is right for your business.

You saw the news. Last month, public VDDK downloads became unavailable. We didn’t notice.

Cirrus Data does not depend on VMware VDDK, Changed Block Tracking (CBT), or VMware snapshots to move data.

Stepping back, the issue isn’t the VDDK decision itself. It’s a migration tool’s dependency on it.

The goal from the beginning was simple: build a consistent approach to data mobility that isn’t dependent on the source platform’s data-movement capabilities.

Learn once. Use forever.

Cirrus Data CTO Sammy Tam explains why the recent VDDK disruption is an important reminder that data mobility architecture matters:

CDS Professional Training is available this summer. 😎

For storage engineers, virtualization teams, partners, and delivery professionals working with Cirrus Migrate Cloud or Cirrus Migrate On-Premises, this is the next step in building deeper migration expertise.

One important note: You need to complete the matching Foundations course first.

If you are not yet Foundations-certified, now is the time to start.

Foundations is self-paced and gives you the baseline knowledge needed before moving into Professional Training.

Already Foundations certified? Watch for your invitation or send us a message.

A simpler path into Azure Local starts with how the destination VM is created.

Cirrus Migrate Cloud migrates workloads directly as portal-managed Azure Local VMs, helping teams avoid a standalone Hyper-V step and move into the Azure Local management experience more directly.

With MigrateOps, teams can define the migration recipe, approve cutover when ready, and manage the destination VM from the Azure portal.

At this week, CEO Charlie Giancarlo made the shift clear: "Data must become primary, and apps secondary."
We agree.

It is no longer enough to think only about the infrastructure or the application. Data needs to be mobile, accessible, secure, and ready to move where the business needs it.

That is why our partnership with Everpure matters. As Everpure advances its Enterprise Data Cloud vision, CDS helps customers and partners move onto new Everpure environments with trusted data mobility. One platform for any workload.

Cirrus Migrate Cloud, our software-only data mobility platform, migrates live production data onto new Everpure environments with no onsite appliances and near-zero downtime at cutover. Enterprises around the globe rely on CDS for fast, secure, live, and flexible migration.

Wayne and Sammy are at Pure//Accelerate this week. If you are there, drop us a DM and let's connect.

Multicloud. Hybrid cloud. Sovereign cloud. Or even a single public cloud.

Today's enterprise needs the ability to address a wide range of technical and business requirements. They might select one strategy for a specific segment of their business and another for more agility.
