Moving data from one system, or domain, to another without compromising security or losing any of the data. Domain migration happens when servers are upgraded and the data (including any authentication and authorization information) must be moved to a new system, when an administrator changes from one ISP to another or when an website’s administrator moves the data that creates a Web page (any mark-up language coding and images) from one system, or domain, to another.
