Data Pipeline Architecture Plan
From scattered sources to one trusted dataset.
A way forward that does not start with a rewrite.
The system still works. That is exactly the problem: it works well enough to be critical and badly enough to be expensive. Hiring is hard, changes are risky, and nobody wants to be the person who touches it.
This assessment gives you a decision-ready picture of where you actually stand. We document the current architecture, quantify the technology debt, and identify the specific components that are genuinely load-bearing versus the ones that can be retired.
You then receive real pathway options — rehost, replatform, refactor, incrementally replace via the strangler pattern, or rebuild — each with its cost profile, risk level, timeline, and business disruption honestly stated. A full rewrite is sometimes correct, and far more often it is not; either way you get the reasoning rather than a sales pitch.
The recommended pathway is broken into phases sized to deliver value independently, so the programme can be paused, re-sequenced, or funded incrementally without stranding you halfway through a migration.
