Data migration is the process of moving data from one location to another, which is an essential aspect of cloud migration. Data migration involves transferring data from on-premise storage to the cloud. With the rapid adoption of cloud computing , businesses are moving their IT infrastructure to the cloud. This shift from on-premise to cloud computing creates challenges for IT professionals, as it requires careful planning and execution.

As organizations mature on their digital transformation journey, they begin to realize that automation – specifically, DevOps automation – is critical for rapid software delivery and reliable applications. But as multicloud environments grow, they become increasingly complex and generate massive amounts of data. In turn, manual approaches to identifying code issues and troubleshooting are not scalable.

What is it, how does it work, what can it do, and what are the risks of using it? A quick scan of the web will show you lots of things that ChatGPT can do. Many of these are unsurprising: you can ask it to write a letter, you can ask it to make up a story, you can ask it to write descriptive entries for products in a catalog.

White box testing is a software testing approach based on an analysis of the internal structure of the component or system. Internal structure may include code, architecture, integrations, and data flows of a system. Why is White Box Testing Performed? Testers perform white box testing for several reasons. The main reason to include it in your test plan is that it provides much more test coverage than black box testing alone.
