➤ Generis CARA | Content migration with migration-center

A migration to Generis CARA can take on very different facets – depending on the use case. Be it consolidation after mergers & acquisitions, the move from on-premises legacy systems to the cloud, decommissioning projects, or the fundamental restructuring of existing systems and data (e. g. data cleansing and enrichment). In particular, heavily regulated industries such as the life sciences sector face a major challenge as compliance plays a predominant role in addition to the usual pitfalls such as system downtimes, susceptibility to errors when carrying out the migration, or high costs.

Content migration to Generis CARA

Since regulated industries have very individual requirements for the processing of data, classic ETL tools only fulfill a fraction of these conditions and usually do not meet the legal or industry-specific compliance guidelines. Although individual implementations solve this problem, they have to be developed from scratch and are therefore timeconsuming and cost-intensive. They are also more prone to errors – a no-go in a validated environment. migration-center, on the other hand, has been developed specifically for such use cases. In addition to years of experience in content migration, a scalable architecture for high data throughput, the possibility of delta migration to avoid downtime and a sophisticated metadata transformation, migration-center also offers an audit-proof migration process, best suited for regulated industries.

“migration-center is a great product. It had richer features and functionality than the previous ETL tool we were using. It alleviated the need to do any custom scripting for migrations and helped us to comply to our records policies.” Vincent Yeung – Senior Software Developer, Documentum @ Canadian Blood Services

A simple six-step process

Our migration process – proven over many years – consists of six simple steps. All steps can be performed independently and in parallel (fully scalable). Please note that all necessary steps take place in the migration-center database and any transformation or mapping errors can be detected and corrected before the actual import.

Step 1

Extract & analyze

All objects to be migrated to Generis CARA are exported from their corresponding source system(s) and analyzed in terms of type, format, metadata, and other properties.

Step 2

Organize

The exported and analyzed objects are now organized into manageable batches, so-called migration sets. Such a set is usually created from objects that are to be processed in the same or a similar way.

Step 3

Transform & map

Transformation rules are assigned to each defined migration set, which are used to generate the required properties for the target system, in this case Generis CARA. The transformation is executed directly within the database of migration-center.

Step 4

Validate

The transformed metadata is tested and validated against the target system Generis CARA without importing the objects, however.

Step 5 (Optional)

Correct

Potential errors are detected during the validation step and can be corrected in unlimited iterations of step 3 and 4.

Step 6

Import

The transformed and validated objects are gradually being imported into Generis CARA.
