The global automotive company wanted to embellish their use of cloud analytics by feeding additional customer data into their customer journey platform. This platform was hosted on the Microsoft Azure cloud and utilized Databricks analytics to provide AI powered optimizations, recommendations and direct buying signals to the dealerships and product partners.
Following a successful proof-of-concept (PoC) they selected Cirata Data Migrator to move their Hadoop customer data to the Azure cloud. This consisted of moving 1500 tables over 30 databases in the parquet file format. They also wanted the data to remain in parquet format in the Azure cloud to enable other upstream applications access. For the customer journey platform, Databricks notebooks were used to create the required Delta format structures for Databricks analytics.
