Common Challenges in Migrating to Databricks
Migrating to Databricks unlocks powerful capabilities, yet the journey can be complex. Here are some of the typical obstacles enterprises encounter along the way:
Lack of Specialized Expertise
Migrating legacy data and systems to the Databricks platform requires specialized knowledge and is often underestimated. Without the necessary expertise, organizations risk facing unexpected delays, increased costs, and complex technical roadblocks that hinder a successful transition.
Data Duplication and Quality Issues
Migrating legacy data without thorough data cleansing can lead to the transfer of redundant and obsolete data. This can cause inefficiencies, inflate storage costs, and increase security risks if not addressed during migration.
Labor-Intensive and Error-Prone
Manual migration efforts are labor-intensive and prone to errors, significantly extending migration timelines and pushing up costs. Automation is essential to streamline the process and avoid operational inefficiencies and budget overruns.
Overlooking Implementation Complexities
Reactive approach to typical implementation considerations such as managing time-zones, optimizing code for Spark, data archival, tagging and cloud cost management can increase migration timelines as well as the risk of failure.
