Step 1: Initial Planning and Assessment
Objective: The initial planning and assessment phase is essential for understanding the scope of your current ecommerce setup on Tray Commerce. We aim to identify the specific data types that will be migrated, assess potential challenges, and establish a clear roadmap for the migration process.
This phase allows us to gather insights into your existing store's structure, including product categories, customer accounts, order history, and any existing customizations that may affect the migration.
- Identify Data Types to Migrate: We will categorize the data into several types, including:
- Product Data: Details such as titles, descriptions, prices, images, and SKU numbers.
- Customer Data: Information including names, email addresses, and order histories.
- Order Data: Previous order details, shipping information, and transaction records.
- Content: Any blog posts, FAQs, or additional pages that should be transferred.
- Choose a Migration Strategy: Depending on the assessment results, we can choose between different migration strategies:
- Full Migration: Moving all data at once, suitable for stores with manageable data volumes.
- Phased Migration: Gradually transferring data in segments, ideal for large inventories or complex customizations.
- Define Success Metrics: Establish how success will be measured post-migration. Common metrics include:
- Zero data loss during migration.
- Minimal downtime during the transition.
- Post-migration performance benchmarks (e.g., site speed, order accuracy).
Once the assessment and planning are complete, we will have a clear understanding of the steps required to ensure a successful migration from Tray Commerce to Mirakl.

Step 2: Data Backup and Cleanup
Objective: Data integrity is crucial during any migration. This step focuses on securing a complete backup of your Tray Commerce data and cleaning up any redundant or outdated information.
By backing up your data, we ensure that you have a fail-safe in case any issues arise during the migration process. Additionally, cleaning your data helps in transferring only relevant and necessary information to Mirakl.

Completing this step gives us the confidence that we can migrate with reduced risk and ensures that only the most relevant data is transferred to Mirakl.
