About Client
As part of an Informatica PowerCenter to IICS migration, the client—a well-known tribal casino in Connecticut, USA—operates across 364,000 square feet (33,800 square meters) of gaming space. The property features two luxury hotel towers with 1,600 rooms, a world-class spa, a 125,000-square-foot Earth Expo Centre, a championship golf course, and more than 80 shops, restaurants, and bars. It also hosts three award-winning entertainment venues.
Background
As enterprises move toward cloud-first architectures, Informatica migration from PowerCenter (PC) to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services (IICS) has become essential. IICS offers a cloud-native integration platform (iPaaS) where software, hardware, and network management are fully handled by the cloud provider. Additionally, Informatica has recently stopped support and service for PowerCenter, making PC to IICS migration a critical requirement for long-term scalability and compliance.
Challenge
- Informatica officially ended support for on-premise PowerCenter servers.
- 150 workflows consisting of 3,000+ objects needed to be migrated to IICS.
- Despite initial automated migration using Informatica’s tool, nearly 90% of the migrated objects were not ready to run due to feature gaps between PowerCenter and IICS.
Objective
- 150 workflows for 3000+ objects were migrated from Informatica on-premise to cloud using a migration tool provided by informatica
- 90% of the objects were not ready to run because of the difference in feature of IICS and PwC
