Case Study: a multinational technology conglomerate migrates from Teradata to Snowflake with Trianz

Multinational Technology Conglomerate migrates to Snowflake in 1 month with Trianz, automating 75% of conversions

A multinational technology conglomerate sought assistance from Trianz to migrate from its legacy Teradata database platform to Snowflake. The company was facing high licensing costs and performance issues with Teradata. A key challenge was the need to rewrite and reintegrate specific SQL syntaxes used within its SAP Business Objects to make them compatible with the new Snowflake data warehouse.

Trianz implemented its EVOVE platform to automate the conversion of SQL queries and Business Objects. This approach automated 75% of the Business Object conversions and over 95% of the derived tables, saving a significant amount of time compared to a manual process. The entire migration was completed in just one month, a task that typically takes up to three months manually. Trianz also identified additional tables for future optimization, helping to future-proof the client's data operations on Snowflake.
