Case Study: Peacocks Reduces Migration Costs and Enables Real-Time BI with Attunity Federate

Peacocks Adopts Attunity Federate to Reduce Data Migration Costs & Enable Real-time Business Intelligence

Peacocks, an international fashion retailer, was modernizing its IT infrastructure by migrating data from a legacy HP OpenVMS platform to SQL Server. The challenge was to execute this multi-year migration without disrupting business users who needed continuous, real-time access to data for reporting and business intelligence. To address this, they turned to vendor Attunity and implemented its Attunity Federate virtual data federation platform.

The Attunity solution provided a single, virtual view of data from both the old and new systems, shielding users from the underlying migration. This allowed Peacocks to accelerate the project, significantly reduce migration costs, and maintain full operational efficiency. With Attunity Federate, the retailer ensured uninterrupted, real-time access to information for over 500 stores while the data was being moved.
