Abstract

The exponential growth of complex data in object-relational databases (ORDB) raises the need for efficient storage with scalability, consistency, and partition tolerance. The migration towards NoSQL (not only structured query language) datastores is the best fit for distributed complex data. Unfortunately, very few studies provide solutions for ORDB migration to NoSQL. This paper reports on how to achieve the migration of complex data from ORDB to a document-oriented NoSQL database. The proposed approach focused on the P3 process that involves three major stages: (P1) the preprocessing stage to access and extract the database features using SQL queries, (P2) the processing stage to provide the data mapping by using a list of mapping rules between the source and target models, and (P3) the post-processing stage to store and request the migrated data within the NoSQL context. A thorough experiments on two real-life databases veriðes the P3 process improves the performance of data migration with complex schema structures.
