We will migrate your data or sell you the software so you can migrate yourself

Our Data Migration Service will contract directly with you to migrate your data. We use our customized software, which consists of the Nexus Client and Nexus Server software, to migrate your data quickly and professionally.

We are also happy to sell you or allow you to rent Nexus Clients and Servers for some time so you can migrate your data yourself. We will provide support, which we have become famous for.

Federate queries during the migration process

Data migration can take an hour, day, month, year, or several years, depending on the amount of data and your migration schedule.

Nexus is such powerful software that it can join data across systems, so federated queries are easy to utilize while you migrate. No other software can join tables and views across two systems like Nexus.

Data Migration Best Practices

We follow three best practices: automation, automation, and automation. Why waste years when Nexus can automate all the difficult portions of data migration?

Once a company figures out the source database they want to move from and the target database they want to migrate to, they must convert the tables and data types from the old system to the new system. This project alone averages about six months.

However, Nexus automates the conversions between all systems, which only takes seconds to complete. Nexus almost always does the conversions perfectly, but users can make global changes.

Depending on the source vendor and the target vendor, a great practice is to use the data movement utilities provided by the vendor, but building these load scripts takes enormous time and headaches.

Nexus always uses the data movement utilities from the vendors but also has homegrown data movement capabilities. And the good news is that all utilities are built automatically in seconds.

Because security is paramount, another best practice is to encrypt and compress your data while in movement.

Nexus automatically encrypts and compresses your source data and even moves parallel streams of the source table to the target table.

Here is a guide to Data Migration Best Practices.

Migration Scalability is an Absolute Necessity

This picture shows Nexus Clients cooperating with a Nexus Server for high-speed data movement and federation.
Users can do everything needed to migrate data on their laptops or desktops, including executing the data load utilities, but they can also schedule the jobs to run on a Nexus Server for high-speed data movement.

One of the world’s largest insurance and financial companies purchased three Nexus Server software packages and 12 Nexus Client licenses. They utilized 12 employees to migrate on-premises data from Teradata, Oracle, DB2, SQL Server, and Netezza to Amazon Redshift, Snowflake, BigQuery, Azure Synapse, and Databricks. Millions of large tables were moved in months.

This company used to utilize Amazon Migration Services but found that using Nexus was faster and more efficient than Amazon.

A secret that almost nobody knows is that when a user executes a load script to move data, the bottleneck is the user’s PC or laptop because load scripts force the data to move from the source systems through the user’s PC or laptop and onto the target system.

The double advantage of Nexus is that users can build the data migration jobs from the PC or laptop, but they can schedule the scripts to run on any Nexus Server. Now, the data moves from the source system through a Nexus Server strategically placed for optimal performance onto the target system.
