Additionally, Sigma successfully migrated the client's database to a new version of MySQL as part of a system upgrade.

The Client
Considering that most of Clients' business was online, active and required

their clients could upload data. Uploaded data would then be analysed by
the company, and generate intelligence reports that clients would benefit
from to manage their business with rigour and efficiency. Sigma sought a
techno-answer that streamlined interactions for both the company and its
clients, by providing online data update, thus ensuring the ease of access and
assured security. Ultimately faster updates meant greater customer
satisfaction for Client

Most of Client’s operations depended on reporting and delivering analysed
data to its clients. Quality reporting back-boned the company. Client had
been using commercial reports tools to generate and deliver reports.
However, hooked onto the open source community, Client was eager to open
source this process. This would imply cost-efficiency and fortify the
reporting process, a step towards incorporating online business intelligence
tools.

4. As part of overhaul for growth, Client decided to upgrade its existing
solution. A part of this included making multiple changes in the schema of
the existing database, reorganising data types, and moving onto a higher
version of MySQL.
Business Case
sales@sigmainfo.net
Solution
Competent and at- home with MySQL, Sigma’s expertise built considerable
confidence for Client to outsource the complete assignment. Sigma’s prior
experience in data migration, MySQL and management of large databases
comes handy as Sigma now prepares a detailed upgrade plan, identifies
SQL’s, migrates data to stored procedures wherever possible, writes
manuscripts, finally migrates and tests the application with the new
database.
The process was challenged with aspects of reverse engineering required to
figure out the right fields, creating documents to plug missing information
and adequately validate information unearthed through multiple methods
before it is assumed correct.
