Software
Migration
Migrating
application software from one multivalue database to another can be challenging
and costly due differences in tape
formats, VOC/MD formats, dictionary structures, Basic program statement syntax,
User Modes, print and print spooler architectures and commands, editor syntax,
peripheral connectivity architectures and protocols, database installation and
start-up procedures and database back-up procedures.
The key to
limiting the cost of migration is to migrate to the database that best emulates
your current database.
