Patent attributes
Database systems and methods are provided for data migration between source and target computing systems using a configurable transformation service. The configurable transformation service obtains transformation configuration metadata associated with the particular combination of source and target computing systems, obtains a subset of source data in accordance with the transformation configuration metadata and transforms the subset of source data from a format associated with the source computing system to an intermediate, platform-independent format. The service transforms the subset of source data from the intermediate format to a destination format associated with the target computing system in accordance with the transformation configuration metadata and maintains the transformed subset of source data in the destination format in association with the target computing system.
