Dear,

One of our client need to migrate 800 Users source tenant to target tenant.
We are planning to use IMAP migration in batches, Could u pls suggest the total number of simultaneous connections to the IMAP migration?
If mail size is 50G & 80G, how long it will take migration ?

Thanks

    About the migration speed, there doesn't exist article introduce about it. I guess it decided by the network and distance between the data center that hosted your tenant.

    By the way, Microsoft provide the Cross-tenant mailbox migration (preview).
