Impetus' Modernization Methodology

1. Assess: Impetus conducts a comprehensive assessment to understand the scope, complexity, technical debt, and dependencies of the legacy systems.
2. Transform: Using their proprietary tool, "Leap Logic", Impetus can automatically transform 90-95% of legacy code (e.g., Informatica, DataStage, Teradata) to modern AWS services like AWS Glue and Amazon Redshift.
3. Validate: Impetus performs cell-to-cell data validation and business logic validation to ensure a successful migration.
4. Operationalize: Impetus sets up the necessary CI/CD processes, security, and governance to productionize the modernized platform.

Leap Logic: Differentiating Features

• End-to-end automation across the entire data ecosystem (EDW, ETL, Analytics, Hadoop)
• Pattern-based transformation that preserves business logic
• Comprehensive lineage and dependency analysis to plan the modernization
• 90-95% automation, leading to 4x faster transformations and 2x lower costs
• Customizable to enterprise-specific frameworks and performance requirements

GenBI Readiness with Leap Logic

• Leap Logic can assess the existing BI landscape (e.g., Tableau) and recommend how GenAI-powered services like Amazon QuickSight can modernize reporting and analytics.
