Fully Migrate VM To Cloud (fullMigrateVmToCloud)

Velostrata enables you to rapidly migrate any VM to the cloud and test any application in minutes, without having to perform a full data migration. Once you have verified that the application works in the cloud, you can then migrate the VM storage as well. This reduces the risk of migration. The Migrate wizard in vSphere does the following steps - Move the VM to the cloud. Migrate the storage to the cloud. Prepare to detach the VM. This takes the data from the AWS S3 object/ Azure Storage/ Google Cloud Storage and writes it to AWS EBS/Azure drives. Once the Migrate wizard is completed after several hours, the VM is Ready to Detach.
