Web migration made easier

Vendors Vamosa and Immediacy are teaming up to provide firms with a means to migrate large web sites

Web content management systems (CMS) provider Immediacy has announced an agreement with migration specialist Vamosa that will enable firms with large web sites and intranets to move data into the Immediacy system.

Vamosa’s Content Migrator product can extract, transform and load content from any source to any target, but firms with sites of 10,000 pages and upwards will really see the benefit of the partnership, according to Immediacy chief executive Nigel Jackson.

“When people use a new CMS they’re not always building a new site from scratch – often they’re redeveloping an existing site,” he explained. “That can be done manually with a few hundred pages, but with tens of thousands of pages it’s a significant operation.”
