Data migration involves two things
Structure migration
- Structure in the target database should match. This
includes the tables, fields, data type and data precission
Data Migration (Actual data)tabase- this would involve
checking the number of rows )in the target database) for
all the table are exactly the same as that in the source
database. Also needs to be checked is that the primary keys
in the tables are not affected as this would affect the
master child tables e.g. Order/ Items.
