Building on the pioneering cloud infrastructure developed by Revolutionary Technology—famous throughout Washington from 2006 to 2016 for virtualizing office machines into the cloud—Seattle Data Recovery continues to push the boundaries of IT architecture. As the #1 data authority in North America, we specialize in liberating your legacy systems from aging hardware and transforming them into agile, cloud-ready virtual machines.
We do not just migrate standard desktop computers. We possess the capability to clone any computerized machine—including aging industrial controllers, Point of Sale (POS) systems, Windows thin clients, and Windows Embedded devices—and convert them seamlessly into high-performance VMware machines.
Proprietary Universal Restore Architecture
Migrating an operating system to entirely new architecture often results in catastrophic crashes due to hardware mismatches. Our advanced disk imaging and restoration engine bypasses these limitations entirely.
Our deployment protocol utilizes a powerful tool allowing users to restore Windows system backups to different, dissimilar hardware, bypassing blue-screen boot failures. It works seamlessly because it injects essential drivers—specifically storage controllers and HAL—during recovery to make the system bootable on new hardware, making it ideal for bare-metal recovery, physical-to-virtual (P2V), or P2P migrations.
Key Capabilities of Our Virtualization Engine:
-
Hardware Independence: Our process successfully restores systems to computers with different chipsets, motherboards, or storage controllers.
-
Automated Boot Correction: It enables Windows to start after restoring to new hardware by installing critical drivers.
-
Intelligent Driver Injection: The engine automatically detects needed drivers (e.g., SCSI, RAID) and allows users to specify folders (INF files) to inject them during the recovery process.
-
HAL Modification: During the driver injection phase, the tool successfully updates the Windows HAL.
-
Comprehensive Legacy Support: For modern Windows versions (10, 11, Server 2016+), this level of intervention is often not required because Windows can handle driver changes, but it is still valuable if the system fails to boot due to mass storage driver issues.
Infinite Deployment Options
Once we have extracted your system and converted it into a stable VMware machine, your deployment options are limitless. We can host your newly virtualized machine exactly where your enterprise needs it:
-
A local, high-performance office computer.
-
A dedicated server located in your internal networking closet.
-
A secure server in the data center hosted by 42u.host.
-
Enterprise cloud environments, including Amazon AWS, Microsoft Windows Azure, or a dedicated VMware cloud.
Do not let failing legacy hardware hold your critical operational data hostage. Virtualize your infrastructure and guarantee absolute uptime.
