Cloud Migration & Governance

Cloud Data Migration, Governed Right.

We help teams move enterprise data from Teradata, HDFS, Hive, Oracle, and Netezza into governed cloud analytics on BigQuery, Snowflake, and modern cloud platforms — with senior architecture, validation, and cost control built in.

Founder-led delivery for companies that need enterprise-grade execution without building a full internal data team.

Six ways we get your data where it needs to be

From a single cost review to a full enterprise migration — scoped to what you actually need.

Teradata to BigQuery Migration

End-to-end migration of Teradata workloads — schema conversion, BTEQ script translation, validation, and cutover — with zero-downtime patterns for production systems.

BTEQSchema ConversionValidation

HDFS & Hive to BigQuery

Migrate Hadoop-ecosystem data platforms — HDFS, Hive, Spark jobs — into BigQuery with a re-architected, cloud-native pipeline instead of a lift-and-shift.

HiveSparkDataproc

Data Governance & Cataloging

Metadata management, lineage, and access-control implementations using Dataplex, Alation, or DataHub — built for audit-readiness, not just documentation.

BigQuery Cost & Performance Optimization

Audit slot usage, partition strategy, and query patterns to cut your BigQuery bill — most engagements pay for themselves within one billing cycle.

Fractional Data Architect

Senior architecture guidance on retainer — for teams that need a data lead's judgment without a full-time hire. Reviews, roadmaps, and hands-on unblocking.

What you're actually hiring

Senior ownership from scope to delivery

The same senior team that scopes your migration stays close to architecture, validation, and delivery review.

Fixed-price where it matters

Assessments and well-scoped work are fixed-fee. You know the number before we start, not after.

Built on real enterprise scale

Our patterns come from programs run at 1,000+ TB scale — battle-tested, not theoretical.

NDA-first, always

Every engagement starts under NDA. Your schema, your data, and your roadmap stay yours.

Process

The KloudOcean Passage Method

A charted five-stage route every migration follows — so nothing gets improvised mid-voyage.

01
Waypoint 01
Assess

Inventory your current platform — tables, dependencies, job schedules, and data volume — to scope the real size of the work.

02
Waypoint 02
Plan

A migration roadmap with sequencing, risk points, and a realistic timeline — reviewed with your team before anything moves.

03
Waypoint 03
Convert

Schema and script conversion — including BTEQ, stored procedures, and job orchestration — rebuilt for BigQuery, not just translated.

04
Waypoint 04
Migrate

Batch-by-batch cutover with row-level validation at each step, so discrepancies get caught immediately, not at go-live.

05
Waypoint 05
Govern

Cataloging, lineage, and access controls put in place so the new platform stays audit-ready from day one.

Migrations we've actually run

Retail · Under NDA

250TB Teradata → BigQuery

Enterprise retail data platform
Challenge

Legacy Teradata warehouse approaching end-of-support, powering daily merchandising and finance reporting.

Approach

Phased, batch-by-batch migration with parallel validation against the legacy system before each cutover.

✓ 250TB migrated✓ Zero reporting downtime
Real Estate Media · Melbourne, AU

Analytics & GA4 Modernization

SixthVision Media
Challenge

No unified view of marketing performance across properties; reporting was manual and inconsistent.

Approach

GA4 implementation with custom event tracking, feeding a live Looker Studio dashboard.

✓ Unified reporting✓ Real-time dashboards
Insurance · Canada · Under NDA

5,000+ Tables, HDFS → BigQuery

Enterprise insurance data platform
Challenge

Aging Hadoop cluster with thousands of tables and undocumented dependencies across claims and policy systems.

Approach

Automated dependency mapping followed by a phased, risk-ranked migration sequence.

✓ 5,000+ tables migrated✓ Full lineage documented
Proof Points

What a good engagement should prove quickly

Scope should get clearer, not foggier. We surface charset, script, scheduler, lineage, and validation risks before they become change orders.

Assessment output

Dashboards should ship with clean event definitions, business-readable metrics, and enough documentation that your team can own them after handover.

Analytics delivery standard

Founder-led means the people who scope the work stay close to delivery. You get senior review, direct communication, and fewer hand-off gaps.

FAQ

Before you ask

Do you work with companies outside India? +

Yes — we actively serve clients across India, Australia, the UAE, the USA, the UK, and Canada. All coordination happens over video calls and shared documentation, with overlap hours arranged around your time zone.

What data platforms do you migrate from and to? +

Primarily Teradata, HDFS/Hive, Oracle, and Netezza as source systems, migrating into BigQuery (and Snowflake where that's the better fit). If your platform isn't listed, ask — the underlying migration patterns generalize well.

How long does a typical migration project take? +

It depends entirely on scope — a focused departmental migration can close in 6-8 weeks, while a full enterprise platform spans several months. The Migration Assessment gives you a real timeline before you commit to anything.

What does the Free Assessment actually include? +

A structured review of your current platform, a complexity and risk score, and a fixed-price proposal for the actual migration — no obligation to proceed, and no generic sales deck.

Do you offer fixed-price or time-and-materials? +

Both. Well-scoped work — assessments, dashboards, cost reviews, most migrations — is fixed-price. Open-ended advisory work runs as a fractional retainer instead. You'll always know which one you're signing up for before you commit.

How do you protect our data and IP? +

Every engagement starts with an NDA before any data or schema details are shared. Access is scoped to what the project needs, and case studies are only published anonymized or with explicit client sign-off.

Do I need to hire you to use the free tools? +

No. The Migration Readiness Checklist, the SQL Cheat Sheet, the Query Pack, the Cost Estimator, and the Governance Template Pack are free to use whether or not you ever become a client — see the Resources page.
