Too Many Migration Projects Fail
Today, the majority of enterprises are engaged in ongoing system migrations – and
most of those projects will either fail completely, overrun on time, or exceed
their budget.
Too often, key failings during data migrations combine with insufficient testing and
design. This leads to compliance risks and costly bugs, which are often only identified
once it’s too late.
This eBook evaluates key causes for data migration failures, before setting out a
unified approach for data migration success. This approach not only supports a successful data migration: It provides the “living documentation” and rigorous in-sprint testing needed to innovate the migrated system in future.
