Updated: 07/18/2024 by Computer Hope

A data dump is the transfer of a large amount of data between two systems, often over a network connection. For example, a database can be dumped to another network server, where it could be utilized by other software applications or analyzed by a person. Some websites receive a data dump from outside systems and publish that data to for visitors to review or use.
