**Massive Redirect** is Azion's serverless integration for processing many simultaneous redirects. It can be used where there is a need to change a significant number of addresses, for example, in domain migrations.

To configure massive redirection for domain migration, access the [Massive Redirect](/en/documentation/products/guides/massive-redirect-integration/) documentation.
