Project: Database Migration
Description: Migrate FoxPro to SQL Server in 12 weeks, focusing on better performance, scalability, and cost efficiency while monitoring key metrics like database size, record count, and user impact.
Challenge:
- – Performance bottlenecks in Foxpro DB.
- – Scalability limitations affecting growth.
- – High maintenance and operational costs.
- – Lack of advanced features like [e.g., analytics, automated backups].
Solution:
- Assessment and Planning: Analyze current database and identify requirements.
- Data Backup: Secure a full backup of the existing system.
- Schema Conversion: Adapt the source schema to the target database structure.
- Data Migration: Transfer data using tools like [Tool Names].
- Testing: Validate data integrity and system performance post-migration.
- Deployment: Go live with the migrated database.
- Monitoring and Optimization: Continuously monitor and refine.
Outcome :
- – MS Management Studio for seamless data transfer.
- -NAGIOS for performance tracking.
- – SQL Server Audits for data protection during migration.
- – Always on, Automated Point in Time Recovery for disaster recovery.
