Data Modernisation on Azure Databricks

The challenge

The client needed to modernise its analytical data environment on Databricks.

The approach

Kumulus assessed the source environment, prepared Databricks on Azure, migrated a defined set of tables in a controlled way and validated them after migration.

The outcome

Phase 1 put a governed Azure Databricks data foundation into use, integrating three source systems with up to 13 tables per source and six months of historical data. Phase 2 is extending this centralised, governed data for analytics across additional business areas, within a wider environment of six types of data sources and more than 100 tables.
