Migrate from Informatica to DLH.io
Move off PowerCenter servers or IPU-based IDMC pricing. DLH.io takes over ingestion, your mappings become version-controlled dbt models, and both run side by side until the numbers match.

Same tables in your warehouse. One predictable bill.
Why teams leave Informatica
PowerCenter is aging out
Teams on PowerCenter face a move to Informatica's cloud platform either way. It is the right moment to compare the full cost.
IPUs are hard to forecast
IDMC bills on Informatica Processing Units, so usage across services adds up in ways that are hard to budget.
Specialist skills are scarce
Mappings and workflows need Informatica developers. dbt and SQL are skills most data teams already have.
How we move you off Informatica
Five steps, led by our team. Nothing is switched off until the new pipelines are proven.
- 01
Assess
We inventory your Informatica pipelines: sources, synced tables, schedules, destinations, and the models and reports that read from them.
- 02
Map
Each pipeline is matched to a DLH.io connector or agent, with table and column mapping written down before anything is built.
- 03
Rebuild
Our team configures the DLH.io pipelines and destination schemas, and loads history from your sources.
- 04
Run in parallel
Informatica keeps running while DLH.io loads the same data. We reconcile row counts and key totals until they match.
- 05
Cut over
Point your models and reports at the DLH.io tables, then retire Informatica. No downtime, and you switch only when you're sure.
What moves, and who does the work
We rebuild for you
- Source extracts as DLH.io connectors, including CDC from SQL Server and Oracle
- Target schemas and table structures
- Workflow schedules and dependencies
- Historical loads from each source
- Sources behind your firewall, through the DLH.io agent
We finish with your team
- Converting mappings and transformations into dbt models, with DbDeux if you choose
- Reusable mapplets, parameters, and lookups that need a design decision
- Source and warehouse credentials, IP allowlisting, or SSH tunnels
- Sign-off on the reconciliation before cutover
