Data Modernization
Overview
Legacy data systems are often the biggest bottleneck to innovation. At Eastwards, we specialize in transforming fragmented, outdated data estates into high-performance, cloud-native engines.
As a modern firm backed by strategic partnerships with global technology leaders, we help you shed technical debt and build a scalable data infrastructure that doesn’t just store information – it drives competitive advantage.
Our Data Engineering Pillars
Strategic Modernization Roadmap
Modernization isn’t just about moving to the cloud; it’s about aligning technology with business outcomes. We define a clear path to value.
- Infrastructure Audit
Identifying inefficiencies and cost-leaks in your current legacy setup.
- Transition Strategy
Selecting the right approach (Re-platforming, Refactoring, or Re-architecting) based on your specific timeline and budget.
- Business Case Development
Quantifying the ROI of modernization through reduced maintenance costs and increased speed to market.
Cloud-Native Architecture Evolution
We move you beyond simple storage to “intelligent” data structures that support 2025-era demands.
- Lakehouse Implementation
Unifying your data lake and data warehouse into a single, high-speed architecture (e.g., Databricks, Snowflake, or BigQuery).
- Serverless Data Processing
Scaling your compute power up or down automatically to ensure you only pay for what you use.
- Multi-Cloud Agnostic Solutions
Ensuring your data isn’t locked into a single provider, giving you the freedom to move across AWS, Azure, or GCP.
Automated Migration & Logic Modernization
We use advanced automation to ensure your transition is fast, secure, and error-free.
- Zero-Downtime Migration
Moving mission-critical workloads to the cloud without disrupting your daily operations.
- Code & Schema Transformation
Using automated tools to convert legacy SQL, ETL scripts, and stored procedures into modern, optimized formats.
- Data Validation
Rigorous, automated testing to ensure that not a single record is lost or corrupted during the move.
Unified Data Governance & Security
Modernization is the perfect time to “fix the foundation.” We embed security and compliance into the very fabric of your new data estate.
- Automated Data Privacy
Implementing masking, encryption, and access controls that comply with global standards (GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA).
- Metadata Management
Organizing your data so it is searchable, tagged, and easily understood by business users.
- Policy-as-Code
Automating compliance checks so your system stays secure even as it scales.
