Use case
Cloud migration in hours, not months.
Most cloud migration plans are six months long because the data move is the bottleneck. Wirekite makes the data move a coffee break — and keeps the old database current until your team is ready to cut over.
The six-month migration plan is a data problem.
Pick any enterprise cloud migration and the schedule looks the same. Months of planning. Weekend cutover windows. A team on call. A rollback plan nobody wants to execute. The reason isn't the new cloud — it's getting the data into it.
With traditional tools, a one-billion-row table takes roughly thirty hours: twenty-four to extract and load, six to catch up on the changes that happened during the load. Multiply by every table and the migration plan stops being a weekend and starts being a quarter.
Wirekite collapses the data move from days to hours and the catch-up from hours to minutes. The migration plan stops being a logistics problem.
The numbers that change the math.
One pipeline. Three jobs.
Wirekite handles every phase of the migration — and the same binaries handle the cutover and the post-cutover sync.
1
Move the bytes.
Wirekite Data does the one-shot bulk extract and load. Native bulk-load APIs on the target — Snowflake COPY, Google BigQuery load jobs, Postgres COPY, Google AlloyDB COPY. Files decouple the source and target so neither blocks the other.
2
Catch up the changes.
Wirekite Replicate streams every insert, update, and delete that happened during the bulk move — and keeps streaming until you flip traffic. Single-digit-minute lag, sustained.
3
Prove the move.
Validate walks source and target sorted by primary key and compares column-by-column — type-aware for timestamps, NUMERIC, JSON, NULL handling. Your team flips traffic with row-level confidence, not a row-count handshake.
One billion rows. Two timelines.
