The Hidden Costs of Legacy Pipelines

Maintaining legacy pipelines results in:

Increased Costs

  • Ongoing expenses for software licensing and hardware maintenance

Data Silos

  • Fragmented data preventing seamless integration and comprehensive analysis

Skill Gap

  • Difficulty finding professionals skilled in both legacy and modern cloud platforms like Snowflake

Key Challenges in Migrating from Informatica to Snowflake

Migrating from Informatica to Snowflake can be complex. Here are the key challenges you may encounter:

The Migration Process with DataYoga

Assessment

Comprehensive analysis for informed migration

1.

Our assessment process identifies all data sources, data targets, lookup entities, transformations, and expression types, producing a detailed report that classifies the complexity of each pipeline and its suitability for Snowflake's architecture..

Conversion

Parse and process pipelines

2.

Rewire passive transformations into a streamlined, linear flow and transform all blocks into our proprietary, target-agnostic format. This ensures that pipelines are ready to be optimized for Snowflake's cloud environment in the subsequent rendering step.

Rendering and Optimization

Generate Snowflake-optimized SQL

3.

Snowflake-compatible SQL queries are generated, leveraging Snowflake's unique features. Our process ensures accurate dialect translation and optimization for Snowflake's architecture..

Validation

Ensuring data consistency

4.

During this stage, all rendered artifacts are verified to function correctly and that data entities align precisely with those in the Snowflake environment. Using automated comparison tools, the new pipelines are regression tested to ensure a full match with the legacy system.

Acceptance

End-to-end regression testing

5.

Rendered artifacts are executed in the Snowflake platform. A detailed comparison is conducted of the target data entities with those from the legacy pipelines. This final verification ensures that the migration not only aligns perfectly with operational requirements but also maintains data integrity.
