Tips

Below describes how to configure COS Migration to maximize the migration speed:
1. Adjust the threshold and concurrence of large/small files based on your network environment to implement optimal migration where large files are split into multiple parts and small files are transferred concurrently. Adjust the tool execution time and set a bandwidth limit to ensure that bandwidth usage by data migration will not affect your business operations. Such adjustments can be made by modifying the following parameters in the [common] section of the config.ini configuration file:
Parameter Name
Parameter Description
smallFileThreshold
Threshold for small files. If the size of a file is higher than or equal to this threshold, multipart upload will be used; otherwise, simple upload will be used. The default value is 5 MB.
bigFileExecutorNum
Concurrence of large files, which is 8 by default. If COS is connected to over the public network with low bandwidth, reduce this value.
smallFileExecutorNum
Concurrence of small files, which is 64 by default.If COS is connected to over the public network with low bandwidth, reduce this value.
executeTimeWindow
This parameter defines the time range when the migration tool will execute a task every day, which will enter sleep mode at other times. In sleep mode, the migration will be paused and the migration progress will be retained until the next time window when the migration will be resumed automatically.
2. Distributed parallel transfer can further speed up the migration. You can install COS Migration on multiple servers and perform migration tasks separately for different data sources.
