Stream Classic Migration Approach

We are in the early stages of planning to migrate videos from Stream (Classic) to Stream (on SharePoint). 

 

We are first trying to understand our data by reviewing the Stream Classic video report and determine which videos to migrate, which videos can be deleted etc. 

 

  • How did you decide which videos to migrate?
  • What are some parameters you used to determine which videos to migrate?
    • For example, do you recommend migrating videos based on number of views? If so what threshold?
    • Or migrate videos published after a certain date? 

 

Any tips, insights, and ideas are appreciated!

    Depends on how much your time is worth. If you migrate to OneDrive, there is no cost typically to your company. If you migrate groups to SharePoint, there may be a storage cost, but it might be lower than your time. After you migrate, you could ask your users to delete the videos if they aren't worth keeping.
