Database Migration for COBOL Applications – Is It Worth It?
The reasons to migrate a database are plenty. They range from replacing outdated technology to lowering the overall cost of ownership for an organization's data management needs. Other reasons include standardization, performance and access to new interfaces. Regardless of the motivation, an organization should not enter the decision to migrate lightly.
The defined process in this paper can help an organization decide if migrating is the right step and, if it is, what they should plan for in respect to migrating to Pervasive PSQL. The process described clearly defines phases for evaluation and design and also provides resources that can be used during execution of a migration.
The process of migrating should start well before the first byte of data is moved. This paper discusses in detail the stages of a migration process that will help define a successful path to guide organizations.
