Case Study: Copyright Agency achieves rapid cloud migration, faster reporting and $40K/year savings with Fivetran

Copyright Agency - Customer Case Study

Copyright Agency, an Australian not-for-profit that manages copyright reuse and supports legal work for creators, faced rapidly growing data volumes and an aging on-prem SQL Server warehouse with manual extraction processes and reporting that was always 24 hours out of date. To modernize its stack and better handle diverse sources (Aurora MySQL, MongoDB, SQL Server), the organization turned to Fivetran alongside Snowflake to migrate its databases to the cloud.

Using Fivetran pipelines to load data into Snowflake (with change data capture for more real‑time reporting), Copyright Agency completed the migration in under three months, decommissioned legacy platforms, and now troubleshoots data issues much more quickly. Fivetran enabled the team to eliminate the need for a DBA, build multiple dashboards, and is estimated to save the organization about $40,000 per year.
