Across industries, enterprises are facing a growing disconnect between what their businesses need and what their data platforms can deliver. While business teams expect real-time insights, AI-driven decisions, and seamless self-service analytics, many data estates remain rooted in legacy architectures, including on-prem data warehouses, tightly coupled ETL tools, siloed BI platforms, and infrastructure that struggles to scale.
Enterprises today must support diverse workloads, like advanced analytics, operational reporting, near-real-time ingestion, and AI, often simultaneously. The result is rising cost, declining performance, and mounting technical debt.
Snowflake’s Data Cloud has reshaped how enterprises approach modern data platforms. By decoupling storage and compute, Snowflake enables organizations to scale workloads independently, optimize costs dynamically, and support multiple use cases on a single platform.
For enterprises modernizing at scale, Snowflake enables:
However, while Snowflake simplifies the platform layer, modernization success depends on how enterprises migrate, re-architect, and operationalize their data.
This is where execution matters.
Enterprises often find that migration alone does not deliver modernization. Simply moving data from Oracle, SQL Server, or Netezza into Snowflake, without rethinking pipelines, governance, or consumption, can recreate legacy challenges in a cloud environment.
True modernization focuses on:
KPI Partners approaches Snowflake modernization with this broader lens.
As a Snowflake Premier Tier Partner, KPI Partners brings a structured, IP-led approach to data estate modernization, combining platform expertise, automation, and industry context to support enterprise-scale execution.
Core components of KPI’s modernization framework include:
KPI supports enterprise-scale migrations from Oracle, SQL Server, Netezza, and other legacy platforms using proven utilities and repeatable patterns. Rather than one-off conversions, KPI applies a factory-based model that accelerates timelines while reducing execution risk.
Instead of brittle, custom pipelines, KPI implements configurable, metadata-driven frameworks that improve agility, simplify maintenance, and enable faster onboarding of new data sources.
Snowflake’s flexibility introduces new cost and performance dynamics at scale. KPI applies cost optimization accelerators to help enterprises manage workloads, right-size resources, and gain visibility into usage patterns, supporting performance without runaway costs.
Modernization efforts often defer governance until later stages. KPI integrates security automation, data governance accelerators, and validation frameworks directly into the Snowflake environment, supporting compliance, auditability, and trust from day one.
KPI Partners has supported organizations across manufacturing, gaming, technology, and life sciences in modernizing their data estates using Snowflake. Common outcomes include:
More importantly, modernization enables organizational agility, allowing data teams to shift from reactive platform maintenance to proactive business enablement.
AI initiatives depend on scalable, governed, and trusted data. Without a modern data estate, fragmented access, inconsistent definitions, and limited scalability constrain the ability to support AI workloads at enterprise scale.
Snowflake provides the platform foundation, but modernization ensures the data estate is positioned to support AI initiatives with confidence.
Enterprises that approach Snowflake modernization as a strategic transformation rather than a technical migration position themselves for long-term success.
With KPI Partners, organizations can establish:
Modernizing the data estate is how enterprises unlock what comes next. And modernization succeeds when platform decisions are matched with execution discipline.
Explore how KPI Partners helps enterprises translate Snowflake adoption into a scalable, governed, and AI-ready data estate.
Organizations adopting KPI Partners’ automation-led approach consistently achieve:
These outcomes make KPI Partner's the leading choice for organizations committed to accelerating their Informatica-to-cloud journey.
