01 / Why they called us

They needed to move sensitive information to AWS without interrupting teams or losing traceability.

02 / The problem they had

Critical data lived across legacy systems and manual processes, creating risk of duplicate or incomplete records during migration.

03 / How we solved it

We built a staged migration flow: extraction, normalization, controlled loading, cross-checks and cutover windows coordinated with their team.

04 / Technical approach

Auditable ETL with Go, PostgreSQL and AWS services. Every batch left logs, counts and checks to compare source against destination before moving on.

05 / Impact

Migration completed with no downtime, audited records and a more reliable cloud base to operate and evolve from.

06 / How long it took

4 to 6 weeks, including discovery, migration rehearsals and final cutover.

07 / What we needed from the client

We needed access to data sources, validation criteria and one internal owner to approve samples by batch.

08 / Process friction

Low: the client validated concrete checkpoints while we absorbed the technical complexity of moving, verifying and documenting.
