without SQL Server/SSIS bottlenecks
The challenge
A legacy SQL Server warehouse and SSIS pipelines used to hinder the client’s ability to launch flexible products and meet strict GDPR mandates.
Two parallel platforms, fragile ETL, and eight-hour report cycles would keep data teams in maintenance mode and block a true member-centric view.
The solution
Infinite Lambda delivered a full-scale cloud transformation that involved:
- Lift-and-validate migration of all SQL Server logic to Snowflake and dbt with automated tests;
- Data Vault 2.0 modelling to embed business logic centrally and integrate 15+ feeds;
- AWS + Kubernetes orchestration for near-real-time ingestion and quality monitoring;
- Documentation and training via dbt Docs and pair-programming to ensure in-house excellence and empowerment.
The result is a governed, scalable platform where every team shares one language for data, while reports appear in minutes, not hours.
