Seamless Integration with free cloud provider discovery tools

You already know to which cloud provider you will migrate? Great, then you can combine their free discovery solution with Txture, benefiting from Txture’s extended cloud transformation capabilities.

Apart from simply collecting information on compute instances and storage like most free tools, Txture also understands applications and databases, creating application-focused mappings.

You don’t have a preferred provider or want to go multi-cloud? In that case, you’ll have trouble finding a discovery solution that isn’t provider-specific. Txture on the other hand is completely neutral, allowing you to compare the different products and providers from an impartial point of view.
