The following is the domain checklist:

• Is the data model normalized?
• Is the data encrypted?
• Has the approach of the database been optimized?
• Are latency requirements clearly identified, and are mechanisms in place to ensure these are achieved?
• Do you have clear strategies for transactional consistency across distributed data stores, and do these balance this need with the cost in terms of performance and complexity?
• Do you have mechanisms in place for validating migrated data and dealing appropriately with errors?
• Have you defined sufficient storage and processing capacity for archiving, and for restoring archived data?
• Has a data quality assessment been done? Have you created strategies for dealing with poor-quality data?
