Data movement is exactly what it sounds like: moving data from one place to another. We rely on various channels to communicate online, so we leave too much data behind, including data, files, etc. These become our important assets, so data to be moved is very important. In this article, we will analyze the definition of moving data, risks and challenges, and introduce some common data movement solutions. What's data movement? Data movement, is the ability to move data from one location to another within an organization using techniques, such as Extract, Transform, Load, Extract, Load, Transform , Data Replication, and Change Data Capture , Its purpose is mainly for data migration and data warehousing. The principle and importance of moving data In generally, the are two ways: replication and synchronization. Replication Provides a reliable and cost-effective way to create an accurate and up-to-date copy of your data from one or more sources that can be made available to anyone who needs access to it, no matter when or where they work. You can maintain control of the replicated database with flexible configurations for archiving and retention rules, data movement and breathing, and storage. Your data remains available for use in the original application or with analytics tools installed. Synchronization Keep replicated data up to date so users and applications have the best information available when working with it. You can update the replicated database in a batch or live configuration. For many relational databases, you can use the Change Data Capture feature to instantly synchronize new data. What are the risks and challenges of data movement? Because data is so valuable, it’s important to carefully plan and execute its migration. Issues during data movement can corrupt data, causing errors and inefficiency when it finally reaches its destination. Data Security Security is another common concern when dealing with data, especially for organizations that handle sensitive personal information like addresses, medical history, and the like. Make sure you take the necessary steps to ensure a secure data transfer. For an online movement, that could mean data encryption. Data Loss Risk During the data migration process, data loss can occur. When the data is migrated to the new system or target system, some of the data may not migrate over from the source system. Extended Downtime Risk The risk of extended downtime comes when the data migration process takes longer than expected. During the migration process, the source system is not active, so this poses potential risks for organizations and stakeholders. Capacity Issues Some businesses also run into trouble if they try to fit in data migration on top of their regular day-to-day work. Data migration can seem straightforward, but it’s still a very important undertaking that needs to be taken seriously.

Hasan Köroğlu is the founder of Kadraj Group. His knowledge and experience on the Internet and audio visual technologies as a producer for many years had Kadraj growing fast. Kadraj is the leading company on QC, localization, and delivery services in Turkey, which was established by Hasan in February 2019. It has been 12 years and 8 months until now. It was just a decade ago when Turkish dramas became popular all over the world, just after two years later Kadraj was established. It was perfect timing for their services, and they are working together with the major market actor including producers, distributors, and broadcasters over these years. Today they are the pioneer in this market, in their domain. Here’s the interview between Hasan Köroğlu and Raysync, in which Hasan shared his use case in data delivery and the difficulties his team met in the daily workflow. Raysync: Hi Hasan! Could you please describe your use case in worldwide content delivery? Hasan: Kadraj is the biggest digital delivery hub for Turkish dramas and Turkish series. Keeping in mind the demand for Turkish dramas on the world market that makes our position unique. After the latest progress on internet technologies and almost 95% of the deliveries are completed via internet, just make it clear, we are talking about deliveries of thousands of hours of content every month to over 40 countries and around 150 clients/broadcasters all over the world. This is why we need alternatives all the time and we are pushing the boundaries all the time. Raysync: What difficulties have your team met in the workflow? And how does Raysync helps to solve? Hasan: Especially creating new accounts and user permissions, user management - they are major problems. And there were some issues with the stability of the platforms we were using back then, also bandwidth management was another big problem for us. Raysync solved almost all of them, especially the bandwidth management is really important for us and Raysync did it. We are glad. Raysync: What projects did Raysync handle the data transfer for? Hasan: Hundreds of Turkey series and we have sent over 200 thousands of unique commercial hours of TV content. For the last 10 years, the TV content that has been exported to other countries from Turkey, has been prepared and delivered by Kadraj, by us. Projects Kadraj Participated Raysync: How big the file is for each transfer? Hasan: Let's say it's between 20 gigabytes to one terabytes for each file. May because let’s say a 45 minutes episode is around 20 gigabytes in MXF format, and Turkey series are around two hours long and two hours long 4k raw content is more than a terabyte, those are single files. We have over six petabytes data at the office right now. But keep in mind this is not a big data, this is a volumetric data. We do not have that much files, but the files are really big. Raysync: How do you like Raysync’s data transfer and acceleration services? Hasan: Actually, this is something we really haven't thought about it, because just after implementing the software, the platform into our workflow, we got used it very quickly and feel like we haven't migrated but we were using it from the very beginning. It's really easy, we did like it very much. Because it's easy and it's obviously planned and developed with really experienced people, they know what they're doing. Raysync: What's next plan with Kadraj? Hasan: There are lots of plans. For the last couple of months we are working on ISO 27001 certification and we are in the process of TPN assessment. And this is why we are updating our structure, everything at the office, so there will be lots of changes in the coming a few months, maybe before the new year and a lot will change at Kadraj. Special thanks to Hasan Köroğlu from Kadraj Group.

When "Big Data" roared through the defense line of traditional information architecture and brought unprecedented commercial data and Internet information, enterprises ushered in business opportunities and faced severe challenges. How to ensure efficiency, compliance and security, and how to eliminate the threat of data governance, this requires enterprises to make clear the basic requirements of file sending and sharing. Excellent file delivery system needs at least the following 8 basic elements: 1. Content Protection Office documents/technical packages/design drawings/audio/video content... All kinds of documents have different security specifications, so enterprises need to be able to master the creation, sending, accessing and downloading of various documents and implement effective protection measures. 2. Operation Permission Correctly understand the existing organizational structure of the enterprise, accurately design and process the permissions of members and departments, and give users the corresponding functional permissions to operate files. 3. Audit Trails Strict auditing mechanisms such as service detection, vulnerability scanning, penetration scanning, and process auditing, as well as risk avoidance strategies, strengthen the enterprise data security defense line and supplement the authority system. 4. High-efficient Transmission It is not limited to file size, type and quantity, and has no fear of transnational and ultra-long-distance transmission, and always ensures efficient, stable and complete file transmission and efficient linkage of business data. 5. User Management User information, operation authority, flow control, and outgoing supervision are all kept, and internal employees and external partners are managed separately, which is suitable for complex business scenarios of enterprises. 6. Security Encryption Build enterprise data information network firewall to effectively resist network attacks and virus intrusion; Form a safe transmission mechanism to prevent the leakage of files during storage and outgoing. 7. Event Notification Equipped with the visual file management notification function, enterprises can establish contact with files and users, supervise files anytime and anywhere, and improve compliance and safety awareness for users. 8. Traceable Flow Documents can be supervised in the company, and they should be controlled outside the company. Based on the above demand points, can an enterprise choose a file delivery solution that meets its own enterprise needs? The answer is obviously not. The real solution of file delivery should not only consider the actual business needs but also analyze the enterprise's own situation. Only by combining these two to make a targeted solution, as such, the document can be achieved to the ideal effect.

What’s Financial Big Data Platform? It is a financial ecosystem based on big data technology and leveraging data-driven value. Safely handle millions of transactions Banks and financial institutions must process, monitor, track, and report on various forms of financial payments, and millions of transactions per day cannot be separated from safety supervision. The financial big data platform integrates its payment business into a single platform, opens a single access portal for specific personnel, accelerates customer service, and simultaneously has the characteristics required by financial institutions: security, compliance, and continuity, which are subject to unified central control. Design a customer-centric experience with data Understand and predict customer needs and interactions, so as to improve customer experience and build long-term loyalty. If banks focus on creating a digital banking customer experience, the analysis of data from multiple sources through the financial big data platform can help to be customer-centric, answer customer questions at a digital speed, and thus achieve the effect of improving the customer experience. Risk control with data It is difficult for financial institutions to control enterprise risks, and the continuous enrichment, improvement, and sharing of data will be an effective means to solve this problem. Under the situation that it is difficult to grasp the market risks in time, the establishment of financial big data platforms combined with multi-dimensional data can improve the industry's data collection and risk analysis capabilities, and help financial institutions to identify, measure, and manage the risks of financial institutions more efficiently. Achieve scalability and security sustainability with the cloud Many of the applications that modern financial institutions have run on a diverse ecosystem of locally deployed, private and public clouds. The financial big data platform employs a hybrid cloud strategy that can be used to establish connectivity as well as provide protection, enabling secure connectivity to a wide range of services across the entire ecosystem. Financial institutions are not native institutions in the digital field, they must undergo a long-term transformation process of demand analysis and technological change. The driving force behind this transformation is a variety of data, including structured data from management information within the enterprise, and more unstructured data that exists in multiple sources or is not captured within the company. Conclusion In order to ensure that the financial big data platform carries huge amounts of data and drive the data to interact with each other efficiently to bring its value into full play, Raysync Speed Transmission has formulated a set of accelerated solutions for big data transmission for banks and financial institutions.
