Data Migration

Data migration is simply moving data from one location to another. Migration may mean changing formats or changing applications in the process. The process takes planning and care. Some data takes special handling due to sensitivity, and some data needs to be cleaned up and deduped before the process begins. But at heart, all data migration is a three-step process:

Extract the data from the source
Transform the data to meet new specifications and testing
Load the Data

When is Data Migration Necessary?

Merging with another company: If a company merges with another organization using Salesforce, it may need to combine its data into a single instance.
Switching from a different CRM system: If a company is currently using a different CRM system, it may want to change to Salesforce and will need to migrate its data to the new platform.
Data Consolidation: A company with multiple Salesforce orgs may want to consolidate the data into a single org for better data management and reporting.
Data Archival: As the data grows over time, it may become necessary to archive old data to improve system performance and reduce storage costs.
Data Governance: As data privacy regulations become increasingly strict, companies may need to review their data and remove any sensitive information to comply with regulations.
