| Migration and consolidation of business data from diverse legacy platforms is an ever-growing need of all organizations. A few common reasons being |
 |
Portability and mobility |
|
Manipulability |
|
Connectivity |
|
On-demand availability of data and |
|
Easy manageability of databases |
|
| Legacy databases fall short of requirements in almost all the above areas. So migration of legacy data to modern, scalable and powerful relational databases becomes imperative when an organization needs to respond to fast changing business needs. |
| But every data migration initiative is fraught with risks and challenges like: lack of data integrity, unreliable quality, and data loss resulting in unexpected and inaccurate results from applications using the migrated data. Most of these arise from a poor deep understanding of the problem, lack of a strong methodology and the use of tools and utilities developed on the fly during execution of a project. And to top it all, data migration is often a neglected and wrongly estimated activity. |
| Data migration services from Metalogic Systems provides the right solution to large data migration requirements through an automated process which is based on a strong and comprehensive methodology. The use of automated tools makes the process highly predictable and manageable. |

Flexible Solutions |
|
| There is no silver bullet to solve the problem of data migration. A migration project needs to use a multi-pronged strategy. |
| Data can be static or volatile – typically reference data or transactional data. Application availability (or downtime) is also varyingly dependent on different data stores. |
| Data migration can be one time if a legacy application is being decommissioned. But it can be a periodic and repeated activity if the legacy application is being with new age downstream applications. A migration may need to be carried out in a short time window or it may be incremental. An application integration initiative may also require solutions for transferring data back to the legacy applications. |
| The solution, methodology and the tools therefore must lend themselves to be tuned to address special needs of every organization. |
| Metalogic Systems uses a set of Master Tools that can generate requirements-specific data migration tools for virtually any data migration challenge. |
| With this versatile technology and its wide experience in executing mission critical migration projects Metalogic Systems is uniquely placed to address a wide variety of for data migration requirements. |
|
|
A Well-Defined, Reliable Methodology |
|
| The data migration service from Metalogic Systems uses a highly automated lifecycle offers complete transparency and checkpoints to ascertain the accuracy of the process. The methodology is based on years of experience in providing tool-based, automated migration solutions. |
 |
|
|
Catering to Every Migration Requirement |
|
| Data migration requirements can arise from various situations – |
|
Application migration – decommissioning of legacy applications and re-hosting them on modern technology platforms |
|
Replacement of applications with packaged solutions or with new applications |
|
Application Integration – allowing sharing of data across disparate applications |
|
Retiring of legacy applications but retaining archived data for subsequent use |
|
| Metalogic Systems provides solutions for all such situations including full application migration, to deliver efficient, cost-effective, automated solutions to address diverse and challenging data migration requirements. |
| The automated tool-based migration methodology delivers projects, which are predictable, accurate, within time and cost budgets and converts data migration nightmares into manageable projects. |
