Beyond Migration: Evolving to a Smarter, Scalable IoT Future

A retrofit approach for the process industry

Beyond Migration – Evolving to a Scalable Future

A LoRaWAN Network Server migration can be the best strategic move for your business

Discover the issues that lead to a transition, common mistakes and best practices for a correct and safe LoRaWAN® Network server migration.

For many CTOs and Network Operations Managers, the infrastructure decisions made during the pilot phase are facing unprecedented stress. As networks transition to mass deployment, early-generation setups often lack the high-availability architecture, security compliance, and operational tools required for scale.

We have released this comprehensive whitepaper to guide you through the critical transition from "maintenance mode" to true operational evolution.

This whitepaper provides a practical overview on the most common situations that make the migration a strategic move. It goes through the 5-step migration process in details showing risks, challenges and best practices to successfully complete the process preserving service continuity.

The Scalability Paradox: When "Free" Becomes Expensive

What began as a cost-effective prototype often becomes a maintenance nightmare. Open-source stacks and legacy platforms frequently hit a "technical ceiling," where the cost of maintaining infrastructure consumes engineering capacity that should be spent on innovation.

In this whitepaper, Paula Estrada (LORIOT) breaks down why the "build vs. buy" decision of the past is becoming a liability today, and how moving to a managed, enterprise-grade LoRaWAN Network Server (LNS) is the key to unlocking future growth.

Inside, You Will Learn:

  • The Business Case for Migration: A detailed Risk vs. Reward analysis and TCO breakdown. Discover why predictable pricing and SLAs beat the hidden costs of self-hosted maintenance.
  • Technical Deep Dive: How to preserve Session Continuity. We address the #1 fear of network engineers—moving devices without forcing a truck roll—by preserving Identity, Security Context, and State (Frame Counters).
  • The 5-Step Migration Protocol: A production-grade methodology validated across large-scale operator infrastructures, from Assessment to Final Commitment.
  • Security & Future-Proofing: How to achieve data sovereignty and continuous innovation without recurring platform rewrites.


A proven path to evolution

Migration is not a reset—it is an upgrade in trust, scalability, and operational freedom.

“The migration from our previous provider to LORIOT was incredibly easy. The team at LORIOT had everything well prepared, guided us through every step and made the whole process feel seamless. The support and planning was excellent and made for a smooth migration.”
