Why Metadata Matters for Business?

Moving Egnyte to Google Drive mandates metadata preservation. Knowing its importance helps businesses understand the need to safeguard it during migration.
Metadata is necessary to:

  • Track file creation & modification time
  • Secure user permissions
  • Maintain audit trails for compliance
  • Eliminate workflow disruptions by archiving essential file details

What Makes Preserving Metadata So Challenging During Migration?

Preserving metadata during a Dropbox to Google Shared Drives migration is a challenging task for businesses as it involves:

  1. Differing metadata formats between Dropbox and Google Workspace
  2. High volume of historical file versions
  3. Complex permission sharing settings
  4. Risk associated with overwriting the original timestamps
  5. Breakage of embedded links during transfer
  6. API throttling limits affecting large-scale transfers
