Raven: The Transformer

Automated Workload Conversion & Translation

Ravens are known for their ability to innovate and come up with new solutions to the challenges that they encounter. Our code transformation tool is named for the Raven because of its ability to transform complex code in minutes leveraging an automated approach.

For modern data-driven business enterprises, data transformation is an essential part of migrating on-premises application data to the cloud. Efficient data transformation improves overall quality of data – thus supporting improved decision-making in any organization. As part of the Datametica Bird suite, Raven is a data transformation tool that can convert complex code workloads from on-premises systems to operate as cloud-native applications. Raven can automatically convert and translate workloads from on-premises systems – including Teradata, Oracle, and Netezza – to cloud-native technologies – including Google BigQuery, Azure Synapse, Snowflake, and AWS Redshift.
