Tenant to tenant migrations & co-existence

Combine, split or move between Office 365 tenants
When you need to migrate between Office 365 tenants (domains) moving data and users is just the tip of the iceberg, especially if you need multiple domains to co-exist seamlessly for any length of time.
- You need a mechanism for synchronising contacts and free/busy information to ensure co-workers can email and collaborate easily and communicate with clients throughout the migration – as though in a single domain.
- You may also need to consolidate the infrastructure of the merging organisations, starting with integrating the separate Active Directory (AD) instances into one.
- Not all of the organisations involved may be in the cloud – so there may be some complexity involved in integrating on-premises users and applications.
There’s other things to transfer across, including security, privacy, anti-spam and retention management settings. In fact, the amount of up-front planning involved to ensure a fault-free tenant migration can be daunting, with no ‘one size fits all’ third-party solution and no off-the-shelf solution from Microsoft.
