Data Migration is upgrading from one version to another version fro e.g. from 11.5.9 to 11.5.10.. Data Conversion is receiving data from a legacy system or receiving data from another module ( e.g. PA) validating it and converting it to ur our the target module using the standard import program.

RE: What is the difference between data conversion and...

Data Conversion refers to the movement of data from a legacy system or application to a replacement application or sub-system.

Data migration refers to movement of data from one database to another database but not neccesarily to a working application or subsystem tables.

Other important terms pertaining to data include;

1. Data Cleansing

2.Data Integration

3.Data replication

4. Data Intergrity Testing

5.Data Transfer

6.Data Transformation

7.Data Translation

8. Data Partioning
