Data Conversions
Many clients have large databases from older computers,
and would like to move their data to newer PC's, Unix, Linux,
or other newer platforms. We can assist in writing the needed
programming to convert your data automatically.
If you are faced with a lot of data that must be moved from one
platform to another, automatic conversion is really only the
best choice. Here's why.
Moving large amounts of data has 2 problems:
- The first problem is the number of hours paying for
key operators to manually enter large amounts of data. Large
amounts of data are just prone to become corrupt from
human error.
This occurs no matter how careful you are. It just happens!
Nothing is more frustrating than to say, "I know the
record was in here, but we can't find it!"
-
The second problem is that the database that you are
looking to move to probably has different data types,
or data that needs to be put in another format to be
accepted. Our expert data conversion teams have
been able to come up with conversion rules to automatically
convert many foreign data types to a type your new database
will accept.
