Best Practices for Handling Enterprise Data!

A successful data migration strategy requires thorough planning and enterprises should identify the data to be migrated and ensure its quality.


Why Do Enterprises Execute Data Migration?

  • Replacing a legacy system with another that is more aligned with the needs and goals of the business.
  • To cut down the operational costs of data storage footprints and transferring data to systems that consume less power.
  • To deploy new technologies that help businesses to remain innovative and competitive.
  • Prepare a strategy for disaster plan implementation
  • Implementing a cloud computing environment


Enterprises need to create an efficient data migration strategy. Enterprises can adopt the big bang or the trickle approach for data migration. Enterprises need to move all data, applications, and other pre-identified assets at once if they are opting for a big bang migration strategy. This may lead to system downtime. It is the quickest route since all aspects are moved simultaneously, but it tends to be complex and risky.

Businesses that can’t afford extended downtime and those who meticulously comb through data security and compliance protocol during this process have fewer chances of benefitting from this approach. The trickle migration approach handles migration in phases and allows for a more controlled and less intensive migration, which does not burden IT teams and business operations. It is also less expensive. However, it is a time-intensive exercise and does not suit those businesses on a tight migration schedule.
