Data Migration
Elevate your data strategy to new heights
Unlock the full potential of your data with Easycoder’s bespoke Data Migration Services.
What are data migration services?
Data migration services involve the process of transferring data between storage types, formats, or computer systems with the goal of updating, consolidating, or retiring servers or storage equipment. With EasyCoder, migrating your critical data is hassle-free, so you can focus on what matters most – growing your business.

Planning and Strategy
The initial assessment in data migration checks the existing data for volume, quality, and dependencies. Then, a detailed migration plan is created, specifying the time needed, resources, tools, and methods for a smooth transfer, while risk management identifies possible problems and plans ways to protect data and reduce downtime.
Data Preparation
Data preparations start with data cleansing which involves correcting errors and removing duplicates to ready data for migration. Data auditing assesses quality and identifies cleansing needs, while format adjustment modifies data to fit the new system's specifications.

Execution
To bring the migration plan live, our team will make tool selections, transfer data, and validate post migration. Tool selection involves picking the right technologies that fit the migration strategy and maintain data integrity. Data transfer is executed in phases to reduce operational disruptions, followed by validation to confirm the accuracy and functionality of the data in the new environment.
Post-Migration
Post-migration, there will be a transition period that we monitor closely with data synchronisation, testing and QA, and documentation and training. Data synchronization involves keeping both old and new systems aligned until the old one is fully decommissioned, ensuring data accuracy. Testing and QA ensure the migrated data functions correctly in the new setting without disrupting current processes. Documentation and training are provided to help end-users understand and use the new data environment effectively.
Ongoing Support and Optimisation
Our team is here to continuously monitor and optimise your new data environment. Regular monitoring is conducted to maintain the system's efficiency and effectiveness. Optimization of the data configuration is an ongoing process, adapting to evolving business requirements and technological advances. This ensures that the data system remains current and performs optimally.
