The usual managed migration
- ✕Fill in a form with your site details
- ✕Wait for engineers to schedule the move
- ✕Often WordPress-first, with fees for complex apps
- ✕Don’t touch your site while you wait
- ✕Repeat moves can cost extra
Free one-click migration
Switching hosts is the worst part. So we do it for you.
One click scans your old server, detects your whole stack and brings it over installed, imported and running. No database passwords, no downtime on your old server, and it’s free.
- Read-only on your old server
- No DB passwords needed
- Run it as often as you like
Nxeon migrationReady
Connect your old server
Read-only. We never store your credentials.
No agent to install. Nothing changes on this server.
Scanning your server
Here’s what we found
5.8 GB- WordPress site/var/www/html, 4.2 GB
- Next.js app/srv/billing, 42 MB
- 3 Docker containersredis, postgres, app (compose)
- MySQL and PostgreSQLAll databases, no password, 1.6 GB
Migrating to nxeon-sg-01
- Installing prerequisites
- Copying files
- Migrating databases
- Starting containers
- Verifying
Migrated and running
on nxeon-sg-01, verified live
- Files restored to their original paths
- MySQL and PostgreSQL databases imported
- 3 Docker containers up with compose
- Ports 443, 3000 and 6379 listening
We start everything we can and flag anything that needs a manual touch.
Not a request form. A button.
Most hosts offer migration as a ticket you file and wait on. Nxeon runs it in front of you, for your whole server, in minutes.
Nxeon one-click migration
- Connect over SSH, nothing to fill in
- Watch the scan and the move happen live
- Whole server: files, databases, Docker, apps
- Old server stays untouched and serving
- Free, and re-run it as often as you need
From old host to live on Nxeon
Four beats, and only the first one needs you.
- Connect
Point us at your current host with its SSH details. No agent to install.
- Scan and detect
A read-only scan finds files, databases, containers and apps, with sizes.
- One click
Prerequisites installed, files copied to the same paths, services brought up.
- Live on Nxeon
We verify what’s running and list anything that needs a manual touch.
Your whole stack, moved and running
Not a folder-copy tool. Nxeon reads the real shape of your server and rebuilds it on the other side.
Auto-detects everything
Site files, home directories, databases, Docker containers, Compose projects and the apps listening on your ports.
No database passwords
MySQL, MariaDB and PostgreSQL are dumped with root over local sockets, so you never dig up a credential.
Prerequisites installed
Docker Engine and Compose, your database engines, nginx or Apache and the runtimes your apps need.
Same paths, running
Files land where they were, databases are imported and services are re-enabled.
Checked up front
Storage, OS and CPU architecture are read first, so problem moves are flagged before they start.
Cut over only when you’re happy
Your old server keeps serving traffic the whole time. Test everything on Nxeon, then switch your DNS.
We start everything we can, and flag the rest
Most stacks come up clean. When something needs one manual step, we tell you exactly what and why.
- Files and home directories copied to the same paths
- MySQL, MariaDB and PostgreSQL dumped and imported
- Docker volumes copied, Compose projects brought up
- Prerequisites installed, services re-enabled
- !Hand-built systemd units and one-off containers are flagged
- !Binaries for a different CPU architecture are flagged, OS matched
Moving from a specific host?
Step-by-step guides for the hosts people leave most.
Before you switch
The questions everyone asks first.
Do I need my database passwords?
No. We dump MySQL, MariaDB and PostgreSQL using root access on your old server over its local socket, so you never have to find or share database credentials.
Will my old server be affected?
No. The scan and the copy are read-only on the source. Nothing is changed, stopped or deleted, and it keeps serving traffic until you switch your DNS.
What about Docker?
We detect running containers, named volumes and Compose projects, copy the volume data and bring them back up with docker compose. Standalone containers started by hand may need a manual re-run, and we tell you which.
What if my old server runs a different OS?
We read the source OS and CPU architecture during the scan and flag differences up front, and can provision a matching OS on Nxeon.
Is it really free?
Yes. There’s no per-gigabyte fee and no migration surcharge. You only pay for the Nxeon server you keep, and you can run the migration as many times as you need.
Stop putting off the move.
Your old server keeps running the whole time. Connect it, scan it and watch your stack come up on Nxeon.
