Enterprise Data Modernization at Scale

Migrating a legacy monolithic SQL Server database to a modular modern data stack (Snowflake + dbt + DuckDB)

The Problem

Legacy batch reports took 4+ hours every morning, causing delayed fulfillment dispatch and blind business decisions across 12 regional warehouses.

The Architecture & Solution

Designed a real-time event ingestion pipeline with dbt incremental models and materialized views, paired with DuckDB for fast local analytical verification.

Query response latency dropped from 240 seconds to 1.8 seconds
Eliminated $420k in database server licensing fees within 90 days
Enabled 100% self-serve business intelligence for 350+ operational staff
