Data Migration

Configuring and commissioning of a LIMS installation will often involve the use of legacy data of two distinct types which is often in electronic form (spreadsheet, legacy LIMS, Access database, etc.):

• Legacy configuration data - definitions of analyte, method, product, specifications, customers, etc.
• Legacy history data - samples and tests run using legacy data collection methods and tools. This data can have high value in providing continuity of operation and capability when converting to a new LIMS.

Blaze Systems offers services to migrate this data into your new BlazeLIMS database.

In the case of legacy configuration data, considerable time saving can often be achieved by converting this data to BlazeLIMS format and content and automatically loading it. BlazeLIMS provides a spreadsheet tool to assist the customer in doing this, but in some cases it is more efficient to contract with Blaze System to provide this service.

In the case of legacy history data, Blaze Systems can provide the service of converting this data to match the data model, content and format required by BlazeLIMS and loading it, either at cutover or during initial operation of the BlazeLIMS installation.

Blaze Systems has developed a set of tools and techniques which allow us to provide this service on a fixed price and very cost effective basis compared to our competition, many of whom will not provide this service at all.
