Database cleanup before migration
To improve the performance of the database tier migration, clean your current WebSphere Commerce database before migrating.
The following assets and data should be considered in
deletion planning:
- Logs (for example, user traffic log)
- Abandoned shopping carts
- Old guest users
You can remove unused or obsolete objects from your database
using the Database Cleanup utility script:
- WebSphere Commerce Version 6.0: Database Cleanup utility
Running the Database Cleanup utility can take some time
to complete. Consider the following points:
- Evaluating the types of data on your system and how they affect database maintenance. User and order data can be quite large, resulting in large database tables.
- Cleaning any obsolete data on an ongoing basis using the Database Cleanup utility.
