Automation & Repetition
Key Principles for Successful Data Migration
Automation removes manual risk. Repetition exposes issues early. Together, they create a repeatable migration path that is easier to control, test and trust.
Overview
Automation and repetition at the core of delivery
A successful data migration depends on excellent communication with clients, which is the core of our BIDM methodology. Alongside that, we focus on two technical principles that make the process dependable: automation and repetition.
- Automation – Eliminating manual errors to ensure a smooth migration process
- Repetition – Systematically identifying and resolving issues during the process
Our goal is to automate the entire migration lifecycle where possible, allowing the process to be repeated, verified and improved with minimal human intervention.
Automation at its finest
DataMC’s GOM interface supports repeatable migration activity with less manual effort and clearer control.
Why it matters
Automation reduces manual error. Repetition reveals issues early. Together they create a controlled delivery process that can be trusted at cutover.
01 / Repeatability
Repeatability makes the process reliable
From the initial planning to the final cutover, data migration is meticulously tracked and updated using our DM REVOLVE WOM workflow engine. The process is designed to be repeated as often as needed so issues can be found and resolved before go-live.
- Progress is tracked to allocate resources effectively
- Quality of migrated data is checked at each stage
- Issues are captured across the full end-to-end process
As data objects advance through each stage, they are extracted, cleansed and uploaded to a target test system as frequently as possible. By cutover, the data should be migration-ready and thoroughly tested.
