    Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor and a non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that cause the processor to classify files stored on a source storage into files for deletion and files for migration based on a storage policy and meta-data, generate aliases to link the files classified for migration to a location on a target storage, copy the files classified for migration from the source storage to the linked location on the target storage, and determine whether the files copied onto the target storage are identical to the files classified for migration on the source storage using a digital key. In response to a determination that the copied files are identical to the files classified for migration, the processor may activate the generated aliases and may decommission the source storage.
