Hi
What is the best way to migrate Vmware VMs to MS Azure ?
Note: we have Vmware 6.5.
An Azure service that is used to provision Windows and Linux virtual machines.
Hello
so i think we have to go with the 1st option you have mentioned (server migration tool) but i want to ask if this tool is free or need to buy it?
