AstraZeneca’s challenge
AstraZeneca’s legacy ETL stack on Informatica and Talend was expensive, fragile, and consultant-heavy.
Complex transformations would slow delivery from weeks to months, stalling AI initiatives and blocking business users from building their own data products.
The solution
We migrated thousands of pipelines to a Snowflake + Fivetran + dbt Cloud architecture using our proprietary accelerator Flowline.
- Refactored monolithic jobs into modular, test-driven models;
- Embedded DataOps automation for governance, lineage, and alerting;
- Enabled analysts to ingest, model, and deploy data on demand;
- Freed data teams to focus on advanced analytics and AI use-cases.
The entire modernisation project spanned six months.
