Accelerate ETL modernization with intelligence, precision and zero disruption. Empower your enterprise with a seamless, automated modernization from Informatica PowerCenter to Databricks, reducing time, cost and risk while preserving every critical business logic.
Our GenAI powered modernization platform automates the end-to-end conversion of Informatica PowerCenter & IICS mappings, workflows and transformations into Databricks-native PySpark. The platform intelligently scans, translates and validates your existing ETL pipelines, eliminating manual rewrites and significantly reducing modernization time and cost. Purpose-built for enterprises, it ensures business logic integrity, data accuracy and a smooth transition to the modern Databricks Lakehouse platform.
Six recurring pressures forcing enterprises to rethink legacy ETL environments and modernize to a modern, cloud-native data platform.
Informatica licensing fees are expensive and continue to rise, putting significant financial pressure on enterprises.
Legacy Informatica pipelines struggle to handle growing data volumes and modern cloud-scale workloads.
Re-writing ETL pipelines manually is time-consuming, error-prone and requires specialized expertise.
Traditional Informatica workflows lack the speed and efficiency demanded by today's real-time data processing needs.
Informatica's on-premises architecture limits the ability to leverage modern cloud features like auto-scaling and serverless computing.
Aging Informatica infrastructure requires constant maintenance, increasing operational burden and downtime risks.
Six engineering choices that set Kumaran's modernization accelerator apart from generic translation tools.
Unlike traditional modernization tools, we leverage graph database to model and visualize your entire Informatica workflow, providing deep insight into pipeline dependencies, data flows and component relationships before a single line of code is modernized.
Our platform goes beyond one-to-one translation. We intelligently analyze and recreate the core business logic of your Informatica pipelines into optimized, production-ready Databricks notebooks, ensuring what gets modernized actually makes sense for your modern data platform
Powered by Neo4j's Graph Data Science algorithms, our platform automatically identifies structurally similar workflows across your project and enables reusable code generation, drastically reducing redundant effort and accelerating overall modernization.
Our built-in pattern engine detects critical Informatica components such as Mappings, Worklets and Mapplets, both through system intelligence and user-defined patterns, ensuring no workflow component is missed or incorrectly translated.
From XML ingestion to Databricks publishing, every step of the modernization is automated, eliminating manual rewrites, reducing human error and cutting modernization timelines significantly.
Generated notebooks are published directly to your Databricks workspace, enabling a seamless, disruption-free transition with no additional deployment overhead.
From XML upload to direct Databricks publishing, a fully automated modernization lifecycle powered by graph intelligence and AI.
Simply upload your Informatica PowerCenter XML export file into the modernization platform, serving as the single source of input to kick-start the modernization process.
Throughout the process, DQV compares source vs target outputs, identifies mismatches, accelerates QA cycles, and strengthens go-live confidence.
