تعريف legacy data في الإنجليزية الإنجليزية القاموس.
Data stored on older computer systems or in older file or database formats, that often remains behind as the legacy of out-dated technologies Often, this data presents a formidable challenge to client-server developers because it is still useful, but not always easy to integrate into more current systems
Data that is left over from previous technologies The analog recordings on tape are the legacy data that the Consortium wants to address This normally involves a conversion process
Data contained by a system used prior to the installation of a new system Often legacy data resides on mainframe systems, which may have been replaced by client/server systems or Web-enabled systems (1)
