Linux Server Migration Services for a Clean, Hardened Move

We migrate Linux servers between hosts, distributions, or infrastructure — cataloguing every service and hardening the new environment rather than replicating old configuration.

A Linux Migration Is a Chance to Fix What the Old Server Accumulated

Linux servers accumulate configuration drift over years — unnecessary packages, outdated cron jobs, forgotten users. A migration is the right time to catalogue everything actually needed and rebuild it cleanly, rather than copying years of accumulated cruft.

Why Choose NIMU for Linux Server Migration

Service Inventory

Cataloguing every running service, cron job, and installed package.

Clean, Hardened Rebuild

The new server hardened and patched, not a copy of old configuration drift.

Configuration as Code

Server configuration captured in scripts or Ansible for repeatability.

Minimal Downtime

Parallel setup and validation before cutting over DNS or traffic.

Service Validation

Testing every migrated service before considering migration complete.

Rollback Plan

The original server kept available until confidence in the new one is high.
