Patent attributes
Computing platforms, methods, and storage media for data movement are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: obtain a data transfer command including a table-based characterization of a set of data to be transferred from an on-premise platform to a cloud platform, the data transfer command further including a date specification; automatically determine, based on the table-based characterization of the data to be transferred and based on the date specification, a set of files to be transferred; and initiate transfer of the set of files from the on-premise platform to the cloud platform. In an implementation, data is moved at the table level, and the files associated with the specified tables/date range are automatically determined. A single command, which may reference a CSV file, may be used to efficiently and reliably transfer a large amount of data without a user having to specify the specific files to be transferred.
