Given the complexity of the tasks, a clear, sound strategy and a detailed roadmap are indispensable for swift, loss-free migration. Migration processes can be divided into various different types, depending on the level of changes: strategy and management of the modernization process, data migration, porting, upgrades, reengineering or change management each demand a tailor-made approach, special methods and tools, as well as specific know-how.

Since company information systems consist of many different components, it is important to initially consider the relevant migration fields.

The procedure for compiling a migration roadmap is to select the specific migration objects (e.g. applications) from the relevant migration fields and to list them for both the current and the target IT landscape. An analysis of value, quality, architecture and technology in combination with urgency and dependency aspects results in the development of an action portfolio that leads to a migration masterplan. A preceding delta analysis can help to minimize the risks involved in migration – particularly when it is not clear whether migration is at all possible without loss of data or functions.
