Data Migrations

Data Migrations and Conversions Services

Typically, data migration occurs when computer systems are changed or upgraded to new systems or when a merger of systems is required as a result of corporate takeovers or mergers. Database migration services often involve transferring data between heterogeneous database platforms, necessitating conversion between different data formats, character sets, and storage types. To maintain data integrity and avoid information loss during the conversion phase, a thorough knowledge of the workings of both source and target formats is required.
