Historical Data Migration

BKOAI rebuilt the facility’s data architecture and migrated historical data while preserving operational context

Goals

  • Transfer historical datasets from legacy systems to modern analytics platforms.
  • Recreate data archives, asset frameworks, and associated visualizations.
  • Reduce manual effort involved in rebuilding data structures.
  • Preserve historical data and its operational context during migration.

Challenges

  • Large volumes of historical data make migration from legacy systems complex.
  • Manually rebuilding data frameworks and visualizations is time-consuming and prone to error.
  • Maintaining relationships between data and assets adds complexity to the transition.
  • Migration must account for ongoing operations and continued access to historical information.

Solutions

  • Automate the extraction, validation, and backfilling of historical data.
  • Reconstruct data archives, asset frameworks, and visualizations on the destination platform.
  • Standardize migration workflows to reduce reliance on manual scripting.
  • Validate migrated data and reconstructed structures against the source system.

Results

  • Reduced migration timelines from several months to just a few weeks.
  • Maintained continuous operational uptime with zero technical interruptions for business users.
  • Preserved complete data integrity with zero records lost during the archive rebuild.
