Solutions / Legacy Modernization
Modernize your data stack without a big-bang migration.
Your foundational databases still power mission-critical operations. Dataddo connects them to your modern cloud stack and AI tools now - and lets you modernize gradually, on your own timeline - so you gain speed, insight, and AI-readiness without the cost, risk, and downtime of a rip-and-replace.
Your legacy systems become fuel for AI, not a barrier to it.
Agility or control. You shouldn't have to choose.
Enterprises are told that modernization means ripping out foundational systems and replatforming - a slow, risky, expensive project that stalls under security reviews and change control. It doesn't have to. The architecture priority isn't to replace your systems. It's to connect them. Dataddo sits alongside Informix, Sybase, Oracle, and MSSQL, extracts what matters, and delivers it to your modern stack - without middleware, host-side installation, or replatforming. Foundational systems keep running. Modern teams get the data.

Billion-row replication, live in days - not a six-month migration.
A major European insurer needed to replicate 1TB+ of data from an Informix database into Azure - and it had to land as fast as possible, across segmented networks and strict change-control protocols that had slowed every prior integration effort. Dataddo began ingesting billion-row tables within days, with metadata-driven orchestration, recovery workflows, and schema evolution all validated against internal protocols. No core systems were restructured.
Full data replication runtime (~1 TB equivalent load)
| Solution | Runtime | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| In-house developed solution | 30+ hours | Requires full platform contract and setup overhead |
| Traditional agent-based tool | 12-18 hours | Requires on-host software; hard to scale or adapt |
| Dataddo | 2.5 hours | 12x faster. Parallelized on 8 CPUs / 32 GB RAM using 4 parallel workers |
Built for foundational systems.
-
Legacy sources, natively supported.
Informix, Oracle, Sybase, legacy SQL Server, and on-prem ERP - the complex, hard-to-reach systems that hold your critical data.
-
Fast by architecture.
Mesh Ingestion runs parallel extraction across foundational databases instead of slow, serial jobs. In one enterprise deployment, Dataddo replicated over 1 TB in 2.5 hours - 12x faster than agent-based tools.
-
Modernize incrementally.
Start with analytics extraction and migrate systems gradually, on your own timeline. Legacy sources stay fully operational throughout - no big-bang cutover, no forced replatforming.
-
EU data residency maintained.
Extraction and delivery run inside your regulated perimeter - data can move from legacy on-prem environments to modern destinations without leaving the region.
-
Compliance, built in.
Every execution logged, auditable, and attributable. RBAC, SSO, and environment separation. SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and GDPR. Encrypted in transit and at rest, with KMS-based key management. Sensitive fields hashed or masked at the source.
-
Resilient operations.
RPO under 15 minutes, RTO under one hour. Full-dataset reloads in hours for test/dev and recovery. Native integrations with Prometheus, Grafana, Slack, PagerDuty, and ServiceNow.
Certified and compliant with
Deploys where your data lives.
Dataddo's containerized, Kubernetes-compatible design runs wherever your governance requires.
| Deployment | Control plane / Data plane | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Cloud Hyperscalers | Cloud-hosted control plane; data plane in your AWS, Azure, or GCP account | Teams standardized on a major cloud wanting managed, in-region data movement |
| Local Cloud Providers | Cloud-hosted control plane; data plane in a sovereign or regional cloud | Data-residency / sovereignty needs where data must stay with a specific regional provider |
| Hybrid | Cloud-hosted control plane; data-plane agent on-premise, behind your firewall | Regulated, segmented, or air-gapped environments where data can't leave your perimeter |
