Migrate on-premises machines to Azure

This article describes options for migrating on-premises machines to Azure.

Migrate with Site Recovery

Site Recovery should be used for disaster recovery only, and not migration.

If you're already using Azure Site Recovery, and you want to continue using it for migration, follow the same steps that you use for disaster recovery.

Note

When you run a failover for disaster recovery, as a last step you commit the failover. When you migrate on-premises machines, the Commit option isn't relevant. Instead, you select the Complete Migration option.
