Abstract

Techniques for optimizing data migration are disclosed. In one particular embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method for optimizing data migration may comprise receiving a request for initiating a data migration application and migrating, via at least one computer processor, at least one data file from a migration list during the data migration application. The method for optimizing data migration may also comprise monitoring the migration of the at least one data file and determining whether the at least one data file is active during the migration of the at least one data file. The method for optimizing data migration may further comprise deferring the migration of the at least one data file based at least in part on a determination that the at least one data file is active and recording information associated with the at least one data file if the at least one data file is active.
