Data Migration
Migrating data in the wrong hands is like flying a plane with no flying lessons. Imagine sending out letters to your clients only to find that they have gone to the wrong address. Imagine finding out that half of your client data never got transferred. Imagine that someone had added up the wrong financial data and all of your figures stored for past transactions are completely wrong. This is what happens when you use a company with no financial expertise and no long historic experience.
When you set up a new database, the data normally needs to be transferred from the old one. You need to be sure that the data is complete and uncorrupted, that there are no compatibility issues and no unexpected hiccups. It makes sense to use a company with financial expertise that can carry out the process to the highest standards of accuracy and reliability.

We have successfully carried out many different database migrations for blue chip clients including Lloyds of London syndicates and multi branch international banks. Many billions of pounds worth of transactions have depended on these migrations.
As systems get bigger and more complex, so do migrations. Fifteen years ago we were dealing with terabyte systems. These were a thousand times larger than the gigabyte systems that were considered massive at the time. Today’s databases incorporate higher resolution documents, images, graphics, voice recordings and video recordings. In the future, we will be dealing with petabyte and even exabyte systems. You may not have heard of them yet, but they are coming and we will be helping our clients to be ready for them.
