New Migration Cockpit in S/4HANA 1709

With S/4HANA 1610 new data migration tools were already launched. Now it have the Migration cockpit, Migration Object Modeler (MOM) and the Rapid Data Migration (SAP Data Services) tools. These tools remain in S/4HANA 1709, but the content and the number of supported business objects have increased.

Rapid Data Migration tool requires a separate installation. The Migration Cockpit and the Migration Object Modeler are embedded tools which can be used right out the box with S/4HANA.

LSMW is still available but the going forward preferred data migration tool in S/4HANA is definitely the Migration Cockpit.
