Complex database work

When it comes to databases, we have years of experience, so we can save you time and frustration (and maybe money too). We currently use MySQL as a fast, reliable and versatile database engine - it is also free!

        You can have old databases converted.

        You can have databases merged.

        You can have data re-purposed and re-organised.

        Get the benefit of our experience and skill.

International patents registry
We developed, for Current Science Group, a process to convert the International Patents Document Registry database from an old IBM system (of 33 million records) into a new Oracle relational database (also designed by us). En-route the old data items were validated, filtered, cross referenced and re-organised into a form more useful for research purposes.
News coding database
We developed, for Reuters, a process to convert their international company coding database from Oracle on VAX/VMS, to a Tandem Guardian database for the world news editorial systems.
Antenatal Patient Testing laboratory
The Northern Ireland Antenatal Service patient testing system required the migration of many years-worth of complex, sensitive data in a secure and reliable manner.
Blood Bank Management System - "Bank Manager"
This product includes a suite of programs to convert historic patient, blood sample and transfusion data from older systems into Bank Manager's new, and more comprehensive, MySQL database. The conversion can be run repeatedly to allow data cleansing and verification before the application goes "live".
