Data flow - Process
Data migration
Moving data from one system or location to another, usually as part of a change
What's it for?
Moves important information safely when an organisation changes or replaces systems.
For example…
When switching HR systems, employee records and leave balances are moved to the new platform
A data migration moves ten years of customer and order history from a retiring CRM into its replacement before the old system is switched off.
Think of it like…
Relocating a filing room to a new building without losing folders or mixing them up
