Customer success stories

Cloud modernization: TELUS

TELUS, one of Canada’s largest telecommunications companies, faced significant challenges with siloed legacy systems, including Oracle Exadata and data lakes. These legacy systems were hindering operational efficiency and decision-making. Onix partnered with TELUS to migrate 14 petabytes of data from 100 sources to Google Cloud Platform (GCP), migrating over 200 enterprise-grade data pipelines. The migration enabled TELUS to:

  • Reduce obsolete data by 30%, leading to cost savings and a decrease in energy consumption.
  • Increase data accessibility and integration, improving decision-making capabilities across the organization.
  • Lower operational costs by eliminating legacy systems and transitioning to a scalable, cloud-native infrastructure.

By leveraging BigQuery for data storage and transformation, TELUS now benefits from a unified, scalable, and more efficient data infrastructure.
