Database Migration in Swansea

Moving a Swansea business's data from one platform to another — off an end-of-life server, out of Access or a spreadsheet, between cloud providers, or from one engine to another. Rehearsed on real volumes first, so the live run is a repeat of something that already worked rather than an experiment.

Why this comes up

The problem

Migrations fail on the data nobody looked at: duplicates, blank required fields, dates in three formats, encodings that break on the one record containing an accented name. None of it appears in a sample.

What you get

What we deliver

  • A profile of the source data, including the quality problems nobody knew were there
  • Field-by-field mapping agreed with you before anything moves
  • Rehearsal runs on full production volumes, timed so the real window is known not guessed
  • Reconciliation counts and checksums proving what arrived matches what left
  • A cutover plan with a rollback that stays available until you sign off
  • The old system kept readable for an agreed period after the switch

Want this scoped for your business in Swansea?

Thirty minutes, no charge, no sales script. You leave with a written summary of what database migration would actually involve — whether or not you use us.

Working in Swansea

Wales

Swansea combines a large university and health board presence with a coastal tourism economy, and Welsh-language provision is a practical requirement on public-facing work rather than an optional extra.

Database Migration in Swansea — common questions

How long will we be offline?
The rehearsal tells you, which is the main reason to do one. Small datasets can move inside a maintenance window; large ones usually need a replication approach that keeps both systems in step until the final switch takes seconds.
What happens to bad data?
It gets found in the profiling stage and you decide: clean it, migrate it as-is, or exclude it with a record of what was left. What we will not do is silently drop rows that fail validation, which is how a migration finishes on time and loses six years of history.
Can we go back if it goes wrong?
Yes — the source stays intact and untouched until you have signed off. A migration without a rollback is a bet, and it is not one we ask clients to take.
Our data is in spreadsheets. Can you still migrate it?
Yes, and it is common. Spreadsheets carry more inconsistency than databases because nothing was ever enforced, so the profiling stage does more work — but the process is the same.
Do you work with businesses across Swansea?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Wales, including Swansea and the surrounding Swansea area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Swansea businesses do you usually work with?
Bilingual public-facing systems for institutional clients, and seasonal booking for the Gower tourism trade. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Tourism and Public Sector.
Do you cover the areas around Swansea?
Yes — we work throughout Wales, including Cardiff, Newport. Swansea is an urban area of roughly 240,000+, and we take on work across the wider Swansea region rather than the city boundary alone.
