Data Platform Modernization with Microsoft Fabric

Evaluate platform maturity, identify transformation opportunities, and create a strategic roadmap for building a modern, scalable data platform using Microsoft Fabric and Azure Data Services.

Data platform modernization is a complex initiative. Many organizations hesitate to modernize due to fears of disrupting current operations, choosing the wrong integration approaches, or security risks in new environments.

Simform's deep expertise in enterprise data migrations helps organizations eliminate these uncertainties and accelerate their modernization journey. With a comprehensive data platform modernization assessment, our data engineers and platform architects analyze your unique ecosystem to design a modernization approach that maximizes business value while minimizing operational risks.

Assessment Plan

1. Current state analysis and requirements

• We analyze your data ecosystem, including data sources, integration pipelines, and consumption patterns, to create a detailed system inventory. Through stakeholder discussions, we map existing data flows, document critical use cases, and identify business requirements driving your modernization initiatives.

2. Data quality and governance assessment

• Our data quality engineers thoroughly analyze your data management practices, examining data accuracy, completeness, and consistency. We review existing governance policies, standards, and procedures for data security and compliance.

3. Platform maturity evaluation

• Our team evaluates your platform's maturity across data storage, processing, and analytics capabilities to pinpoint where modern Azure services like Microsoft Fabric can drive efficiency.

4. Architecture design and modernization roadmap

• We design your target architecture and deliver a phased implementation roadmap with recommended Azure Data Services. You receive specific guidance on cloud landing zone setup, data pipeline modernization, and self-service analytics implementation, complete with effort estimates and migration approaches for each component.
