People Also Ask
Can AI migration handle complex Matillion transformations?
Yes. AI analyzes your Matillion transformation logic including joins, aggregations, pivots, and custom components. It converts them into optimized cloud-native code while preserving business logic. Complex transformations that took weeks to build in Matillion are converted automatically in hours.
What happens to our Matillion jobs during migration?
Your Matillion jobs continue running normally during migration. AI creates parallel pipelines that you can test and validate. Once you're confident in the AI migration, you switch over with zero downtime. You can keep Matillion as a backup during transition, then retire licenses to save costs.
How much can we save by replacing Matillion?
Most organizations save 70-84% in year one. Savings come from eliminating Matillion licenses ($30K-$50K per user annually), reducing developer time by 95%, cutting compute costs by 60% with optimized queries, and minimizing ongoing maintenance. A typical 5-user Matillion deployment costs $665K/year vs $105K for AI migration.
Does AI migration work with our cloud data warehouse?
Yes. AI migration supports all major cloud data warehouses including Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Redshift, Azure Synapse, and more. If you're using Matillion for Snowflake or Matillion ETL for Redshift, AI can migrate your jobs while optimizing for your specific platform's features and performance characteristics.
How long does it take to migrate from Matillion?
Most Matillion migrations complete in 4-6 weeks versus 24+ weeks for manual rebuilding. Timeline depends on the number of jobs (AI can convert 100+ jobs per week), data volume, and complexity. AI handles the heavy lifting of job conversion, testing, and validation automatically, reducing timeline by 80%.
