Linux Server Migrations
A Linux migration is the process of transferring your website’s data—including files, databases, and configuration settings—from a previous host to a new Linux-based server at Liquid Web. Our goal is to make this transition as seamless as possible, ensuring the integrity of your data and minimizing downtime for your website or application.
Liquid Web provides a dedicated migrations team to assist with this process. For servers with common control panels like cPanel, Plesk, and InterWorx, we can often perform a complete migration of your accounts. For custom setups, our team will work with you to assess the environment and execute a plan to move your data efficiently.
The following resources provide information about our managed migration services and tools for users who wish to perform the migration manually.
