Introduction
Migrating to a new platform requires firms to
move functional data from their legacy system. If
you are dealing in small data sets, the process
could be completed in hours, however, if the data
architecture is different or the size of data to
be migrated is humungous, migration can be
troublesome and time-taking. Some of the
challenges involved in the process include data
loss, mismatch, loading issues, which occur due
to a multitude of reasons. To overcome possible
pitfalls and have a seamless data transfer, it is
crucial to follow a standardized process keeping
various considerations in check.

Understand the Scope of Migration
Before getting started with Salesforce migration,
teams should identify source/destination data and
have a clear data layout in mind. This will help
migration experts to structure and map data
accordingly.

02
Pre-Migration Check
During the pre-migration check, the order of
migration should be clearly defined.
Additionally, a data template should be created
for every object in excel using data export so
that the same can be used to bring data back to
the system. Configuring the data loader as per
time zone and turning off email triggers are
other activities that should be carefully
followed.

Start-Off With a Small Dataset
Consider feeding small datasets to identify and
address possible issues and errors in the initial
phase of migration. Based on the results, experts
can further clean, deduplicate, or validate
source data.

Prefer Batch Processing
Before getting started with Salesforce migration,
teams should identify source/destination data and
have a clear data layout in mind. This will help.
While you migrate to Salesforce, check custom
code, network speed, and be wary of API
bottlenecks as they can affect the speed of
processing. To ensure there is a seamless
Salesforce to Salesforce data migration, consider
sending data in batches.
