Organizational changes due to organic growth, mergers and acquisitions, or new market demands can all result in the implementation of new operational systems. This creates the need to move valuable data from one system to another. Data migration projects are always complex and require expert solutions to ensure success.

Research indicates that more than 60% of data migration projects overrun on time and budget. This is due, in large part, to the fact that the discipline of data migration isn’t well understood and ad-hoc, manual processes are implemented using costly resources.

Successful Data Migration Projects

These depend on the use of clearly defined processes implemented using appropriate data migration software and tools which enable:

• Data discovery – accessing the data sources, tables and fields, whatever the data type or platform
  
• Data profiling – understanding the structure and content of the data sources
• Data cleansing – defining rules to ensure the data migrated is consistent and valid
• Data transformation – defining rules to map source data onto the data migration target tables
• Data validation – defining rules for checking the migrated data.

ETL (Extract, Transform, Load)

These days most organizations get their business information from a large number of different sources e.g. from other businesses, customers, suppliers, and social media.

In order to use the data it is frequently necessary to move it from one data store to another, and to transform it as part of the process to ensure that it meets specific requirements. The ETL (Extract Transform Load) process includes the following tasks:

• Extract the data efficiently and easily, whatever the data source
• View and profile the data so that the structure and relationships are understood
• Transform the data so that it conforms with requirements
• Load the data into the target data store, which can be quite different to the source

Transoft DBIntegrate is a complete data integration platform that incorporates features critical to implementing a successful data migration and ETL project. These include a graphical project designer, data mapping processes, extensibility, standardized access to a a very wide range of data sources, integration with direct SQL, Windows and a scheduler and also no need for costly programming resources.
