What Next Pathway's Leading Global Professional Services Firm Case Study covers

A Leading Global Professional Services Firm migrated SQL Server to Azure Synapse in just 4 months. Next Pathway’s automation platform translated 500 stored procedures, modernized legacy SQL Server architecture with a lift and modernize strategy, and improved governance, audit support, and operational efficiency.

Accelerated SQL Server Migration

Next Pathway partnered with Microsoft to migrate 500 SQL Server stored procedures to Azure Synapse Pipelines across four logical migration waves. Using SHIFT automated code translation, the team completed the migration within 4 months while supporting integrations with ERP systems including SAP and Oracle.

Lift and Modernize Cloud Architecture

The migration followed a lift and modernize strategy instead of a simple lift and shift approach. The project introduced modern technologies and services, improved governance processes, and reengineered existing data models and structures to optimize performance and operational efficiency on Azure Synapse.

Improved Efficiency and Data Management

The Azure Synapse migration streamlined operations, improved data extraction and analytics capabilities, and strengthened automation for audit support. The project also enabled legacy system decommissioning, improved data availability and discoverability, and expanded audit coverage across diverse client data sources.

What a structured Snowflake migration covers

A successful migration to Snowflake requires a clear plan across four disciplines.

Discovery and dependency mapping

Every code object, ETL pipeline, and data dependency needs to be identified and documented before migration begins. Hidden complexity discovered mid-migration creates delays and risk.

Code translation and modernization

Legacy SQL, stored procedures, and ETL pipelines must be converted into optimized, Snowflake-native workloads. Automated translation eliminates manual rework and ensures full coverage.

Validation and functional parity

Every migrated workload must be validated against the legacy source to confirm data accuracy and functional equivalence before cutover. 100% parity is not optional.

Production cutover planning

Cutover requires a defined plan covering resource allocation, rollback decisions, and business sign-off. Teams that plan cutover from the start move faster and with greater confidence.
