The existing Synapse-based transformation layer was expensive, slow, and required frequent manual intervention for schema updates and transformation maintenance, which delayed analytics delivery and created unnecessary operational overhead.
Modernizing Legacy ETL from Synapse to Databricks for Faster, Lower-Cost Analytics
Datansh helped a global chipset manufacturer replace a slow, manual-heavy Synapse transformation layer with a Databricks-based pipeline architecture that cut cost, reduced manual effort, and enabled near real-time analytics.
-50% ETL operating cost through Databricks cluster optimization and removal of Synapse overhead.
60–70% faster load and transform cycles after migrating the ETL architecture.
-80% manual schema-handling effort using PySpark, DLT, and metadata-driven automation.
Datansh re-architected the ETL layer in Databricks using Delta Live Tables, PySpark notebooks, JSON-driven metadata definitions, and a layered Bronze-Silver-Gold model that could support more automated, scalable, and reliable downstream reporting.
