Our team of dedicated experts is fully committed to your success. Through a comprehensive Hadoop Migration Assessment tailored, we thoroughly assess your current environment and offer recommendations for an optimal big data architecture. This ensures a smooth modernization process and maximizes the benefits of cloud scale, openness, performance, and cost savings. The eight-week engagement has two phases; discovery and migration.

Discovery:

• Interviews: Stakeholder meetings to understand your current and desired future state for analytics.
• Analysis: A combination of automated and metadata driven data estate analysis across data artefacts, pipelines, business logic and performance analysis.
• Review: Includes big data compute engine costs, tools and processes, upstream and downstream dependencies, and security inspection.

Migration Plan:

• Prepare recommendation report for target data platform based on report analysis and requirements for sizing, performance, and scalability.
• Identify and document upstream and downstream dependencies, transformation and pipeline code update plan, and level of effort for data and code migration.

Post-Workshop Deliverables:

• Complete analysis of existing Hadoop workloads, complexity, and migration choices
• A recommended migration plan leveraging services like Azure HDInsight, Azure Synapse and/or Azure Databrick and estimated effort involved
• Targeted modern data platform architecture recommendations
