The next step: data migrations
Your multiple data sources have been identified and consolidated: now it’s time to bring your data home
Business applications and processes are constantly changing but one thing stays the same: quality data drives success. The process of optimising data for business success requires many steps: the scoping work of identifying multiple data sources, data consolidation and migrating the data so it is ready to be used for improving your business outcomes.
Data migration is the process of transferring data between storage types, formats, or computer systems. It is usually performed by a set of customised programs or scripts that automatically transfer the data, freeing up human resources. Effective data migration procedures map data on the old system to the new system, giving a design for data extraction and loading and relating old data formats to the new system’s formats and requirements.
