Case Study: Leading Alcoholic Beverage Distributor achieves automated replication of 200 tables and modernized web access with Astera Software

This Leading Alcoholic Beverage Distributor Uses Astera to Automate Data Replication for 200 Tables

A leading distributor of wine and spirits, operating in a data‑intensive sector, needed to consolidate sales, operations, finance, and order history into a centralized system to support forecasting, procurement, logistics, and customer management. Their challenge was replicating data from an SQL Anywhere database to MySQL to power a new web application; existing ODBC tools fell short and the company faced the prospect of hours of manual coding to migrate roughly 175 GB across about 200 tables.

They selected Astera, which built a custom SQL Anywhere connector and automated replication, mapping data types, indexes, and keys between RDBMS platforms and enabling continuous syncing. The solution handled the full 200‑table transfer smoothly, eliminated manual work, modernized the infrastructure for a web‑based sales platform, improved data accuracy and accessibility, and streamlined ongoing operations with responsive 24/7 support.
