The promising solution is open source software (OSS). With the following steps, migration is guaranteed to work. In the first step of the migration effort, companies willing to switch should keep in mind which functions are covered by the proprietary software they are currently still using. This makes it easier to choose the future open source software. The obligatory health check reveals how well the current IT infrastructure works and which processes need to be optimized and adapted in the future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second step of the migration is the removal of all remaining dependencies on features of the proprietary software. The open source alternatives take their place. After that, IT proceeds exactly according to the previously created migration plan to get the new software in place. All clusters and other elements of the infrastructure that the company no longer needs are taken offline by the staff. <em>\"Migrating from proprietary software to open source solutions sounds terribly complicated and burdensome at first\"<\/em>says Klemens Merk, Senior Director DACH at Instaclustr. <em>\"Facing the challenges is worth it, though.\"<\/em><\/p><div id=\"great-20017301\" class=\"great-fullsize-content-en\" style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=6yfv7eho3Gc\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Fullsize\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150.jpg\" alt=\"Fullsize\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-400x50.jpg 400w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-768x96.jpg 768w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-100x13.jpg 100w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-480x60.jpg 480w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-640x80.jpg 640w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-720x90.jpg 720w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-960x120.jpg 960w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-1168x146.jpg 1168w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-18x2.jpg 18w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-600x75.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" width=\"1200\" height=\"150\"  style=\" max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"599\" src=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Klemens-Merk_800.jpg\" alt=\"Klemens Merk, Instaclustr\" class=\"wp-image-112652\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Klemens-Merk_800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Klemens-Merk_800-768x575.jpg 768w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Klemens-Merk_800-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Klemens-Merk_800-480x359.jpg 480w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Klemens-Merk_800-640x479.jpg 640w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Klemens-Merk_800-720x539.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>D<em>t first sounds terribly complicated to migrate to open source.
