Business Agility Boosted with 45% Reduction in Query Execution Time

Challenges

A banking major faced significant hurdles in migrating from SQL Server to Snowflake due to deeply embedded T-SQL within SSRS and Power BI reports. This made the transition effort-intensive and slowed down modernization.

In addition, fragmented SQL-based reporting drove up operational costs and made reporting processes difficult to manage. These inefficiencies not only impacted performance but also reduced overall business agility, limiting the client’s ability to respond quickly to evolving needs. The organization required a streamlined path to Snowflake, with minimal manual effort and sustainable operations post-migration.
Ascendion partnered with the client to execute a fast, accurate, and cost-efficient transition using AI-powered automation.
Through AAVA Studios, we automated the conversion of T-SQL to Snowflake SQL, ensuring precision and dramatically reducing manual effort.
Using the Insights Modernization Studio, metadata-driven analysis was applied to identify redundancies, rationalize reports, and simplify reporting structures.
We enabled database repointing and column mapping, eliminating dependency on SQL Server while ensuring a smooth migration to Snowflake.
We integrated vector-based embeddings and machine learning models to enable high-accuracy business validation and trust scoring, offering enterprises a unique way to measure reliability.
Comprehensive validation, performance tuning, and knowledge transfer were carried out to empower the client’s IT team to sustain operations independently.
