Abstract

A data migration system and method for migrating data objects from a source entity to a target entity, wherein the source entity includes infrastructure shared between discrete systems, the system including: a storage device storing an index of the data objects stored on the shared infrastructure and object attributes of the data objects, said index being in a normalized data model independent of native formats of the discrete systems; a selector adapted to select which objects to migrate based on at least one said object attribute; and an optimizer adapted to optimize the migration of data from the shared infrastructure to the target entity.
