Move off the database. Keep the logic that runs on it.
On-prem databases moved to cloud data platforms. Licensing costs and scaling limits gone.
- No lock-inTarget platforms chosen on merit, not on what the old license forces
- ZeroManual, line-by-line rewrite of stored procedures
- 100%Of schema and procedure logic traced to source
- Pre-cutoverGuardrails checked before the cutover runs
Sources needed
Licensing cost is the least of it.
Licensing cost
Database licensing and scaling limits that came with the old platform go away with the migration.
Logic intact
Stored procedures and schema logic are captured as Living Specs before anything is converted.
Cutover confidence
A cutover that is guarded and gated at every step.
Four ways database migrations stall.
Vendor lock-in
Stored procedures written in one vendor's dialect, with no clean path off it.
Living Specs
Undocumented schema
Years of schema changes with no record of why, or of what depends on what.
Dependency map
Blind cutover
Migrations run on faith, with no way to check converted logic against the original.
Guardrails
No audit trail
When something breaks after the cutover, nobody can trace it back to what changed.
Traceability
The same engine, pointed at the database layer.
Context
Schema, stored procedures and their dependencies mapped as they actually run, not as documented.
Governance
Converted logic is checked against the original before it ships, not audited after the cutover.
Spec-driven
Every table and procedure becomes a bounded Work Order: current behavior, target behavior, done-criteria.
The cutover plan.
Map schema and procedures
The real dependency graph of tables, procedures and callers, captured as Living Specs.
Draft migration Work Orders
Each object bounded: current logic, target logic, acceptance criteria.
Guarded conversion
Deterministic conversion first, AI for the residual, an engineer approving every change.
Cutover with evidence
The record of every object converted, checked and approved, ready for cutover sign-off.
How customers are migrating.
Also on the platform
- SQL Server to Postgres
- Teradata to Databricks
- On-prem Hadoop to cloud
- DB2 to Postgres
Same foundation.
Belcorp moved legacy systems, pipelines and analytics off the old platform in about an hour. Two to six weeks of manual work, cleared to roughly an hour, with the day-0 target hit.
Start with one database. See the specs before you migrate anything.
We map the schema and stored procedures in one database, scope the cutover, and hand back the specs.
