Public Folder Migration to SharePoint Online
Hello I am using SharePoint High Speed Migration API to migrate public folder migration to SharePoint online with the help of following article http://www.sharepointevolved.com/2015/09/22/office-...
My 2 cents here:
1. The FAST Migration API seems to not preserve your metadata properly so I advise to move to the SPO Migration Tool or a third party one.
2. I have seen this also when doing some migrations and I have not an explanation about why the storage metrics page is showing more space occupied by the data that what you have OnPrem.
3. I believe is just a limitation of the Fast Migration API. As you have verified, for files greater than 2 GB you will have to use CSOM but then you will have the bad CSOM performance.
