If so, you are probably facing quite a few questions such as: How do I get started? What if something goes wrong during the migration? And what are the required steps to carry it out properly? Well, your questions are perfectly comprehensible. After all, this kind of operation often requires the expertise of experts equipped with the appropriate know-how to keep things running. Let’s explore our feasible 7-step approach!

Why migrating data?

Taking a step back and looking at the need for data migration, we can observe that the need for a data migration can occur in different contexts:

• Modernisation of legacy systems
• Expansion of storage capacity
• Shift to centralised or decentralised data storage
• Moving to the cloud
• Company mergers, acquisitions or divestitures

Each context has its own challenges and requires a specific approach to deal with specific circumstances and risks.

Data migration may be based on a generic approach, but you can rarely think of it as a stand-alone activity. A data migration process or project should be aligned with contextual operations such a data centre migration, modernisation of infrastructure, platform, applications or data storage.

Ultimately, our data migration goals are offering improved and more efficient business processes by enabling additional functionalities such as handling big data for AI purposes, advanced analytics, scalability and implementing multi-capabilities such as multi-company. In addition, we aim to offer you a higher data storage and retrieval performance, lower costs, reduced risks, cost-effective scaling and better data management.
