Zwiegnet specializes in smooth, well-planned migrations from Windows Server and desktop environments to modern Linux distributions. We’ve helped organizations of all sizes replace aging Windows infrastructure with secure, high-performance Linux systems — without disrupting operations.
Our migration services cover:
- Server Migrations – Windows Server to Red Hat, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, or Ubuntu — including Active Directory replacement with FreeIPA or Samba
- Application Rehosting – Moving .NET, IIS, SQL Server, and custom Windows apps to Linux equivalents (Apache/NGINX, PostgreSQL, Mono, containers)
- Database Migration – SQL Server to PostgreSQL/MySQL with schema conversion, data transfer, and application updates
- File & Print Services – Replacing Windows file shares and print servers with Samba and CUPS
- User Desktop Transitions – Windows to Linux desktop (Ubuntu, Fedora) with profile migration and training
- Hybrid & Phased Approaches – Co-existence strategies, gradual rollout, and rollback plans
- Automation & Scripting – Converting PowerShell to Bash/Python/Ansible for ongoing management
Benefits of migrating to Linux:
- Significant cost savings (no licensing fees)
- Superior security and stability
- Better performance on modern hardware
- Long-term support and vendor independence
- Easy scalability with containers and cloud
We follow a proven methodology: assessment, pilot, phased rollout, testing, and post-migration support. Risk is minimized at every step.
