Overview

Intelligent, Automated Migration From Informatica To Databricks

Our Informatica to Databricks Migration Tool automates the end-to-end conversion of Informatica PowerCenter & IICS mappings, workflows and transformations into Databricks-native PySpark. The tool intelligently scans, translates and validates your existing ETL pipelines, eliminating manual rewrites and significantly reducing migration time and cost. Purpose-built for enterprises, it ensures business logic integrity, data accuracy and a smooth transition to the modern Databricks Lakehouse Platform.

Informatica to Databricks migration
Why Modernize

Why Enterprises Are Moving Away From Informatica, Fast

Six recurring pressures forcing enterprises to rethink legacy ETL environments and migrate to a modern, cloud-native data platform.

High Licensing Costs

Informatica licensing fees are expensive and continue to rise, putting significant financial pressure on enterprises.

Limited Scalability

Legacy Informatica pipelines struggle to handle growing data volumes and modern cloud-scale workloads.

Manual Migration Complexity

Re-writing ETL pipelines manually is time-consuming, error-prone and requires specialized expertise.

Slow Performance

Traditional Informatica workflows lack the speed and efficiency demanded by today's real-time data processing needs.

Lack Of Cloud-Native Capabilities

Informatica's on-premises architecture limits the ability to leverage modern cloud features like auto-scaling and serverless computing.

Maintenance Overhead

Aging Informatica infrastructure requires constant maintenance, increasing operational burden and downtime risks.

Our Solution

What Makes Our Migration Tool Different

Six engineering choices that set Kumaran's migration accelerator apart from generic translation tools.

01

Graph-Powered Workflow Analysis & Intelligence

Unlike traditional migration 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 migrated.

02

AI-Driven Business Logic Conversion

Our tool 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 migrated actually makes sense for your modern data platform.

03

GDS-Based Similarity Detection & Reusability

Powered by Neo4j's Graph Data Science algorithms, our tool automatically identifies structurally similar workflows across your project and enables reusable code generation, drastically reducing redundant effort and accelerating overall migration.

04

Smart Pattern Recognition

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.

05

End-To-End Automation

From XML ingestion to Databricks publishing, every step of the migration is automated, eliminating manual rewrites, reducing human error and cutting migration timelines significantly.

06

Direct Databricks Integration

Generated notebooks are published directly to your Databricks workspace, enabling a seamless, disruption-free transition with no additional deployment overhead.

How It Works

Six Steps From Informatica To Azure Databricks

From XML upload to direct Databricks publishing, a fully automated migration lifecycle powered by graph intelligence and AI.

01
Step 01 / Of 06

Upload Informatica XML

Simply upload your Informatica PowerCenter XML export file into the tool, serving as the single source of input to kick-start the migration process.

Built-in DQV Assurance

Throughout the process, DQV compares source vs target outputs, identifies mismatches, accelerates QA cycles, and strengthens go-live confidence.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about migrating from Informatica to Azure Databricks with Kumaran.

The tool accepts Informatica PowerCenter XML export files as input. Simply upload your XML file and the tool automatically extracts, processes and converts your workflows, no complex configurations or additional data preparation required.
No. Our tool intelligently analyzes and recreates the core business logic of your Informatica pipelines into optimized, production-ready Databricks notebooks, ensuring the migrated code is efficient, clean and aligned with modern data platform standards rather than a simple one-to-one translation.
Our pattern engine automatically identifies key Informatica components such as Mappings, Worklets and Mapplets across your project. Using Neo4j's GDS algorithm, it detects structurally similar workflows and flags them as reusable, eliminating redundant migration effort and significantly accelerating the overall process.
The tool performs automated validation and reconciliation between the source Informatica outputs and the migrated Databricks pipelines, ensuring complete business logic preservation, data accuracy and consistency throughout the migration lifecycle.
Migration timelines depend on the complexity and volume of pipelines. However, our automation-first approach reduces overall migration effort by up to 70%, significantly cutting down timelines compared to traditional manual migration methods.
