Untangle your data and get IT relief with a modern data estate
06/03/2021
Implementing a full modern data estate within a 100 year old oil drilling company, reducing manual efforts and depreciating expensive legacy systems
Accelerated Data Migration
Overview
Blueprint’s perspective is simple:
The foundation for a modern data estate is a Databricks-powered data lakehouse.
The data lakehouse replaces the current dependency on data lakes and data warehouses for modern data companies that desire:
- Open, direct access to data stored in standard data formats.
- Indexing protocols optimized for machine learning and data science.
- Low query latency and high reliability for BI and advanced analytics.
We specialize in migrating your data, regardless of source, to a Databricks powered lakehouse. This migration specialization is a core tenant of our Databricks Center of Excellence.

The Blueprint Way
70% of cloud migrations fail, but 100% of Blueprint cloud migrations succeed.
Blueprint’s data migration approach is driven by our deep expertise in transforming organizations to data + AI companies. We combine this expertise with a expansive set of migration accelerators. Regardless of the source, we specialize in migrating your data to Databricks.
Powered by Accelerators
Our pre-built accelerators enable you to migrate with speed, consistency, and quality.
- Assessment Engine: Analyze source system metadata and code to accurately plan and forecast migration projects.
- Conversion Automation: Batch refactor code from/to various data platforms — 80% or more of legacy code can by automated.
- QA/QC Engine: See data outcomes in relation to processing jobs to ensure consistent results.
- Lakehouse Optimizer: Get real-time visibility to costs and performance of Databricks to ensure maximized ROI.
Migration Quickstarts
Our QuickStart offerings are proof-of-value (POV) projects designed to get you started quickly and demonstrate results in two to four weeks.
