Migration Services
Codimite helps organizations retain Island for selected users or applications while moving suitable workloads to managed Chrome through clearly defined browser, identity, policy, security, and operational boundaries.
Migrate at Your Own Pace
Transition user groups whose applications, browser policies, extensions, and security requirements map cleanly to managed Chrome.
Keep Island temporarily or strategically for workflows that still depend on its specific capabilities.
Avoid moving every user and application before the target architecture has been fully validated.
Define which applications should remain on Island and which can move to managed Chrome.
Document which browser, policies, identities, extensions, and security controls apply to each user population.
Define clear criteria for moving remaining Island users when their target requirements are ready.
Migration Process
Review users, applications, browser policies, identities, devices, extensions, and security dependencies.
Classify workloads into migrate-now, migrate-later, and retain-on-Island populations.
Move a representative lower-risk group to managed Chrome and validate the hybrid operating model.
Transition suitable user groups while retaining Island for approved exceptions.
Monitor both environments, resolve migration issues, and define criteria for future migration waves.
Why Codimite
Codimite combines enterprise browser migration, Chrome Enterprise, identity, security, policy, and rollout expertise to support controlled hybrid environments.
Talk to a Migration ExpertUser and Workload Segmentation. We identify which populations can migrate now and which should remain temporarily.
Hybrid Architecture Design. We establish clear boundaries between Island and managed Chrome.
Policy Mapping. We ensure users receive appropriate browser controls in each environment.
Identity Alignment. We coordinate authentication and application access across the hybrid model.
Migration Roadmapping. We define criteria for future Island reduction or retirement.
Operational Support. Codimite supports deployment, coexistence, validation, optimization, and future migration waves.
Comparison
| Comparison Area | Full Island Environment | Hybrid Island and Chrome |
|---|---|---|
| Browser population | Users remain primarily on Island | Users segmented between Island and managed Chrome |
| Migration approach | Future migration occurs as a larger initiative | Users can migrate incrementally |
| Complex use cases | Continue within Island | Can remain on Island while simpler workloads move |
| Chrome adoption | Limited or separate | Gradually expanded according to readiness |
| Policy model | Single Island-centered environment | Defined policy boundaries across both browsers |
| Application access | Primarily Island-controlled | Applications assigned to the appropriate browser model |
| Exit planning | Island remains the primary environment | Clear criteria can be defined for future migration waves |
FAQs
No. Hybrid operation can be a temporary migration stage or an intentional longer-term model.
Users with straightforward applications, supported extensions, and browser requirements that map cleanly to managed Chrome are usually stronger early candidates.
Potentially. The identity architecture should be reviewed during migration planning.
Yes. Island can remain for approved workloads where business or security requirements justify it.
Clear browser assignment, application guidance, policy boundaries, training, and support ownership should form part of the rollout.
Yes. Future migration criteria can be defined for each retained application and user group.
Identify which Island users can move now, which should remain temporarily, and what needs to change before future migration waves.
