HOME > SERVICES > nxDATACONVERSION Picture Dummy Data Analysis and Consolidation The objective of the data conversion  team is to drive the detailed data analysis process and implement  methods for data configuration and data migration/conversion from various data sources (legacy systems  or other).   In the initial analysis phase the structure, the scope, the update cycle and the amount of suitable data  sources will be verified. Based on considerations regarding the structure and the data volume  recommendations are made for the initial data load. This is to define in which areas data load routines are  suitable for implementation and which customized configuration settings are better scripted to initialize  efficiently the new system(s). Data Load Based on your approval regarding net-linx’ recommended directions about the initial data load and the  availability of suitable (sub-)sets of data we will then develop data conversion routines.  Before we develop the routines for the data load, we perform an analysis of mass data and make  modifications to the configuration settings for the products, since the products might need a special  customization for you. Performance Optimization Based on the availability of suitable full sets of data and in alignment with performance figures of available  or planned server hardware  we will work closely with our  installation service team to ensure that you get  the desired performance for time critical data conversions.    If desired for fine-tuning of the data conversion we arrange that we get the data installed on comparable  hardware and identical software  as planned.  Data Conversion On-Site Performance figures of development servers are not always scalable to available server hardware with full  sets of data to be processed. This is mostly due to parallel operation of legacy and other systems. Once  we have passed the performance optimization on development servers, we recommend therefore a full  conversion cycle within your client-server infrastructure.  This ensures also that more actual data sets are available for a final data conversion/consolidation test.  The data conversion routines will then be tested within your client-server infrastructure along with scripted  configuration settings for your customized system. This will then match also the latest decisions regarding  the business analysis conducted for and with you. Once the set of data conversion routines have been implemented at your sites, you may opt for a number  of subsequent data conversion tests by your own with/without our supervision. In this case you may for  example test the duration of processes for data load from other systems. This might be the case if you  would like developing own interfaces based on application programming interfaces delivered by us.  Data Growth Estimates  Data growth estimates are essential for hardware planning.  They are best estimated based on the result of  a scalable full conversion cycle on-site.    We can then calculate the estimated growth of data during on-line operation after your initial data load from  various data sources for the near future or develop a model for the data growth, in the event that the  business plans are not yet finalized (for example the number of customers and listing entries in the  database is not yet exactly known). The estimates are then valuable for a more detailed infrastructural planning, supported by our installation  service team, for your rollout into production for the near future.  nxDATACONVERSION PROMOTION Benefits Data Analysis Data Load Performance On-Site Conversion Estimates Download net-linx Europe GmbH Germany 01309 Dresden Käthe-Kollwitz-Ufer 76-79 Tel: +49 (351) 31875-0 Fax: +49 (351) 31875-550 e-mail: info@net-linx.com QUICK CONTACT Profit from net-linx’s Data Conversion Experience In case you have plans to consolidate mass  data into one integrated database you may  mandate our data conversion team for a  data analysis and consolidation project.  Benefits Boost productivity by automating manual processes for your data consolidation Make sure that data consolidation meets your timelines Eliminates data redundancy Eliminates different data formats coming from different sources Home | About us | Careers | Partners | Download | Contact Legal Notice | Copyright © 2011 net-linx - All Rights Reserved
