About this task

This topic describes how to migrate data from an on-premise Historian server to Proficy Historian for AWS.

If your network bandwidth is high and the amount of data to migrate is high or low, you can use AWS Transfer family.

If your network bandwidth is low and/or the amount of data to migrate is high, you can choose any of the following options to send data using a physical device:
  • AWS Snowcone
  • AWS Snowball
  • AWS Snowmobile
The data is then migrated into an S3 bucket. You must then migrate it to EFS. For information on which option to choose, refer to https://aws.amazon.com/snow/.
