Database Conversion of Data

Whether you are upgrading technology, updating data between systems, transferring data from a legacy database or amalgamating data, the transfer or migration of data in various database formats can be a daunting, time consuming and difficult task.

We hope to help you with that task, as we have undertaken and successfully completed the challenge many times in many different formats.

Conversion of database data from one system to another can be highly complex and can have quite a steep learning curve if you have not attempted it before. The main problem areas to look out for are;

Issues of Data Migration

  • Different Databases or versions
  • Different Table structure and names
  • Different Table relationships
  • Different Field names
  • Missing Fields for data to be transferred to
  • Missing data for required fields in new system
  • Different data field types and unsupported data types
  • No or limited Data Export functionality
  • No or limited Data Import functionality
  • Requirement to transfer only part of data
  • Limitations on size of data and null values
  • Different features of databases e.g. triggers, auto increments, default values, stored procedures

We have experience of solving all of those problems and more. The most complex was a database system from the 1970's with no documentation (we didn't even know there were any invented then!)
