Corporate and individual user databases have sprung up everywhere because of availability of inexpensive computers and database software. Overlapping information or redundancy is a major problem faced by users of these databases. It increases costs and decreases data quality. However, Data Integration consolidates information from disparate data stores into common, unified databases.
Data migration is the process of transferring information from older data stores to a new database. Many circumstances necessitate an organization to migrate applications or databases. These include an upgrade to a new version of the system, switching to a new database or application, a merger or acquisition, etc. After a migration, the old system and the new system may also need to co-exist.
The data integration or migration tasks are difficult, time consuming, and costly. The existing data should be analyzed and understood, a new data structure must be defined, and a crosswalk has to be developed to map data between the two. A program must be written to transfer the data. It is followed by validating the new data and finding all the anomalies.
