Microsoft Purview to Google Drive migration
Purview → Google Drive
Need to export email archive data from Microsoft Purview to Google Drive? We’ll manage the extraction, transfer, exceptions and agreed reporting from one migration plan.
- Fully managed delivery
- No customer-side install
- Architecture deployed for the job
- Agreed chain-of-custody reporting
What a Purview to Google Drive migration involves
Source considerations — Purview
Before data leaves a Purview-governed environment, we confirm the approved scope, access, retention dependencies and any relevant holds. Governance is part of the migration design.
Destination considerations — Google Drive
For delivery to Google Drive, we agree the destination ownership, folder structure, access model, capacity and evidence required at handover.
How we run the migration
Confirm the scope
We agree the data in scope, source access, destination requirements, volume, timing and evidence needed at handover.
Design and deploy the route
We select the supported migration method and deploy the eMXport architecture needed for the job.
Run and manage the work
We operate the migration jobs, monitor progress and investigate exceptions. Your team gets clear updates without running the platform.
Reconcile and report
We close the engagement against the agreed scope and provide the chain-of-custody and outcome reporting defined during discovery.
What we need to price the migration
Start with what you know. We can refine the rest during discovery.
- Source and destination platforms
- Approximate data volume in terabytes
- Number of users, custodians or archives, where known
- Required timescale and any fixed cut-off date
- Retention, hold, legal or compliance constraints
- Reporting and sign-off requirements
Questions we hear a lot
- Do we need to install eMXport?
- No. We deploy and operate the eMXport architecture for the engagement. Your team provides the agreed access and decisions, not another platform to maintain.
- Can you preserve every folder, label, field and retention setting?
- That depends on what the source can export and the destination can accept. We map the supported data and metadata during discovery, then document the agreed scope.
- How long will the migration take?
- Volume is only one factor. Source performance, destination limits, data shape, access, exceptions and migration windows all matter. We estimate timing after discovery.
- Which format will the exported archive use?
- The format depends on the source, destination and intended next step. We agree the files, structure, naming and any accompanying reports during discovery.
- Is delivery to storage the end of the migration?
- It can be, or it can be an agreed staging step. The statement of work defines who owns the data and next action after handover.
