“We chose Adastra because we recognise a partner in it. That not only knows the data, but also has a human and informal style of work. As we do.”

Václav Dorazil, Head of Data Services, Eurowag

"We don't have the data"

Almost every sales, marketing, and finance director has heard this response from IT department. In times when they did not have a cloud-based data platform. Take a look at our clients' old practices. Maybe you will recognize your company too in those examples.

Half of the companies we surveyed have already a plan to move to the cloud data platform. How about you?

With Adastra, you get a fully functional cloud solution. Whatever your initial conditions are

LEVEL 1: Your infrastructure is on-premise, you don’t have a cloud but you are considering it.

LEVEL 2: You have a sandbox, a few isolated cloud services, minimal automation, prototyping.

LEVEL 3: You use a hybrid cloud, have some applications, opportunistic “lift & shift”.

LEVEL 4: You use the cloud, including cloud governance and strategy, “stateless” architecture.

LEVEL 5: You have a fully functional cloud environment with continuous optimization, multi-cloud, fully managed cloud risks.

“You can start with a basic solution and continue to scale up and up to huge dimensions without having to change the architecture. And you can’t do that with on-premise.”

David Kaláb, Government, Utility & Insurance Division Director, Adastra

Our cloud data platform for Eurowag won the best data solution of 2022

The Adastra project for Eurowag started with a data strategy, followed by migration to the cloud, the basics of data analytics for vehicles, the fundamentals of corporate reporting, and data lake. And ended with the prestigious award for the best data platform.

A data lake platform in the cloud within one year

How to successfully convert 9 source systems, 12 databases, and over 1000 tables in 12 months?

From a certain size onwards, today companies can’t avoid the cloud. The company’s future operations and competitiveness depend on it. This was the reason for Eurowag too, one of the largest providers of freight and road transport solutions in Europe.

Our challenge was: 

  • Design, validate, and implement a company-wide data architecture.
  • Provide a new data platform environment in the cloud.
  • Migrate the original on-premise solution.
  • Launch personalized analytics.
  • Implement new Enterprise Level KPI reporting.
  • Optimize data management processes.

And the result?

  • Rapid migration of the current solution to maintain continuity.
  • Complete revision and re-implementation of data models.
  • Simplification and streamlining of corporate reporting to support data democratization.
  • Analysis of data quality issues and implementation of a data governance program.
More about the winning solution

“Where are we now? We have everything in the cloud, we can scale, and we can do everything accurately “on-click”. I feel like Eurowag has moved forward technologically by about 15 years. Only a year after migrating to the cloud.”

Václav Dorazil, Head of Data, Eurowag

Tips and tricks from practice: How to build a data platform in the cloud (workshop video)

How to get to the cloud efficiently? Go the lift & shift route or choose to move data and applications incrementally? And what if you fall into the vendor lock trap?

  • Find out which path our clients Eurowag and Česká spořitelna chose and why.
  • What they had to overcome on their way to a functional hybrid or pure cloud data platform and how they managed to implement a cloud solution in their company.
  • What all needs to be included in the cost of comparing on-premise and cloud and how to quickly recognize that you are going down a blind path.
  • What is the outlook for the coming years when it comes to cloud.

Watch the recording of the workshop (1,5 h) that took place in May 2023 in Adastra.

Teamwork is crucial, says Václav Dorazil from Eurowag

Crucial for the successful completion of the project. However, few internal IT systems are strong enough to keep communication completely transparent so that everyone in the company knows what is happening and what the next steps are.

Adastra, as an implementation partner, helped Eurowag through the challenging changes throughout the project. You can hear the full story of the joint project in the workshop recording above.
