Effective Migration, Balancing Cost, and Performance
summary
Migrated Big Data Hadoop to Databricks and DWS, using lift‑and‑shift, replatforming, accelerators, spot instances, autoscaling and FinOps to cut waste and enforce compute and cluster policies; outcome is concrete: 10 petabytes moved, $8M/year saved and 28% performance gain on reported workloads. Examples include a Databricks sizing that hits about $35,000/month for 500 jobs, and tactical steps — inventory, governance, job scheduling, archive cold data — that are implemented and working.
