A switch with no surprises
Old and new run side by side and get reconciled until every report matches. You cut over when the evidence says it's safe.
Data migrations
“Our reporting still runs on a SQL Server box under someone's desk.”
Legacy systems rarely fail all at once. They get slower, costlier, and harder to staff until moving feels both unavoidable and risky. I get you onto a modern platform without the stalled, endless project.

Lower running costs
Retiring on-premise servers and aging licenses removes hardware, maintenance, and the niche skills they depend on.
Less key-person risk
Logic that lived in one person's head or one fragile server becomes documented code your whole team can read.
Signs you need this
- Reporting depends on an aging SQL Server, Oracle, or Access database
- Business rules live in stored procedures, SSIS packages, or Excel macros
- Only one person really understands the old system
- A past migration attempt stalled halfway
What's included
Dependency map
Every table, job, report, and person that touches the old system, mapped before anything moves.
Platform recommendation
A clear recommendation for where to land, based on your data, your team, and your budget.
History moved and reconciled
Historical data loaded and checked against the source, with any differences explained instead of hidden.
Logic rebuilt
Stored procedures, packages, and macros rebuilt as tested, documented code on a modern cloud-native stack.
Parallel run and cutover
Both systems run together until outputs match, then you cut over on your schedule and the old system is retired.
Common questions
How do we know nothing gets lost?
Reconciliation. Row counts, totals, and key reports are compared between old and new at every stage, and you see the results.
Will reporting go down during the move?
No. The old system keeps running until the new one is proven, so your team keeps working the whole time.
Can we migrate in phases?
Yes, and it's often the safer choice. We can move one department or subject area at a time.
