Question 1

How does Datomsphere migrate data?

Accepted Answer

Lynx, the engine behind Datomsphere, connects directly to source and target storage systems using their native protocols. No middleware, no format conversion. Data is transferred byte-for-byte with continuous integrity verification. Metadata, permissions, and retention policies transfer intact. If a connection drops, Lynx resumes from the exact checkpoint.

Question 2

What storage protocols does Lynx support?

Accepted Answer

Lynx is protocol-agnostic. It natively speaks CAS, NFS, SMB, S3, REST, and proprietary protocols from NetApp, EMC, Hitachi, Pure, and others. No translation layer. No middleware. Data moves in its native format.

Question 3

What scale can Datomsphere handle?

Accepted Answer

Petabyte-scale is our baseline. Lynx scales linearly by adding nodes on the fly. No rebalancing downtime. Throughput grows proportionally with infrastructure. Our largest engagements have moved hundreds of petabytes across heterogeneous storage environments.

Question 4

Is there downtime during migration?

Accepted Answer

Zero-downtime cutover is the standard. Lynx uses persistent replication to keep source and target in sync continuously. The cutover itself is instantaneous. Applications reconnect to the target without reconfiguration.

Question 5

What compliance certifications does Datomsphere meet?

Accepted Answer

Datomsphere is built for regulated industries. SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, GDPR, SEC 17a-4, FINRA, and FedRAMP environments are all supported. Chain-of-custody audit reports are generated automatically for every migration. Every byte verified, every transfer documented.

Question 6

How is data integrity verified?

Accepted Answer

Forensic-grade verification. Lynx checksums every object at source, in transit, and at destination. Any mismatch triggers automatic re-transfer. The final audit report includes full chain-of-custody documentation suitable for regulatory submission.

Question 7

Is data encrypted during transfer?

Accepted Answer

All data in transit is encrypted using TLS 1.3. At-rest encryption on the target is preserved or applied per your security policy. Lynx never stores data intermediately. It is a direct pipe from source to target.

Question 8

Does Datomsphere support cloud migrations?

Accepted Answer

Yes. On-prem to AWS, Azure, GCP, or any combination. Hybrid and multi-cloud topologies are fully supported. Bandwidth is optimized automatically with checkpoint-based resume.

Question 9

Can Lynx handle legacy storage systems?

Accepted Answer

That is exactly what Lynx was built for. Proprietary formats, obsolete protocols, vendor-locked systems. If it stores data, Lynx can read it. Our engineering team spent decades inside the enterprise storage ecosystem. We have seen every edge case.

Question 10

How is Datomsphere priced?

Accepted Answer

Pricing is engagement-based, scoped to your data volume, source/target complexity, and timeline. No per-seat licensing. No surprise charges. Request a demo and we will scope a proof-of-concept on your real data.

Question 11

What does the proof-of-concept include?

Accepted Answer

A live migration against your actual schema and data. Not a sandbox. Not a simulation. You will see Lynx run against your real environment so you can validate performance, integrity, and compatibility before committing.
