Common Architecture¶

Simple Two-Hop Pattern¶

Tool-neutral architecture for documentation overviews:

Simple two-hop pattern

Nutanix AHV/ESXi (Source) → Hyper-V Staging (Intermediate) → Azure Local (Target)

Veeam Migration Path¶

Scenario page detailed architecture¶

Veeam scenario detailed architecture

Scenario-page component diagram: source Nutanix estate, Veeam B&R control plane, Hyper-V staging, Azure Migrate appliance, and Azure Local destination.

diagrams/scenarios/01-veeam-architecture-detailed.drawio

High-Level Architecture¶

Veeam high-level architecture

Two-hop architecture: Nutanix AHV/ESXi → Veeam replication → Hyper-V staging → Azure Migrate → Azure Local.

Batch Pipeline Flow¶

Veeam batch pipeline flow

Sequential batch execution — 10 VMs per batch, Hop 1 cutover before Hop 2 begins.

Veeam Setup Detail¶

Veeam setup detail

Detailed component diagram: Veeam server, AHV proxy VM, replication jobs, Hyper-V target.

Azure Migrate Workflow¶

Azure Migrate workflow

Azure Migrate: appliance discovery → replication → test migration → production cutover → Azure Local VMs.

High-Level Architecture¶

Commvault high-level architecture

Two-hop architecture: Nutanix AHV/ESXi → Commvault protected copy → Hyper-V staging → Azure Migrate → Azure Local.

Commvault Setup Detail¶

Deploy-First Migration Path¶

Scenario page detailed architecture¶

Deploy-First scenario detailed architecture

Scenario-page component diagram: build-first Azure Local target VM, direct migration methods, and no intermediate Hyper-V staging layer in the primary flow.

Architecture Overview¶

The editable draw.io source (open in app.diagrams.net):
assets/diagrams/migration-diagrams-deploy-first.drawio

Page 1 — Architecture: Carbonite-based OS-level replication variant inside the broader Deploy-First path. Shows source Nutanix VM → Carbonite → pre-provisioned Azure Local target VM. Contrasts with the Veeam/HYCU/Commvault two-hop pattern (no Hyper-V staging host required).

Page 2 — Migration Steps: Eight-step swimlane — Provision target VM, install agents, create job, initial mirror, continuous replication, test failover, cutover, validate and cleanup. Includes timeline bar and when-to-use / when-not-to-use callouts.
