FAQ

Frequently asked questions

When is it time to modernise our data platform?
When reports disagree, refreshes are fragile, licences for legacy tools (Qlik, SAP BO, on-prem SQL) keep rising, or you simply cannot put AI on top of what you have today.
What does a modern platform look like?
A governed lakehouse with a medallion architecture (bronze, silver, gold), a semantic model for fast, interactive BI, and Purview governance, all on Microsoft Fabric or Databricks.
Do we have to migrate everything at once?
No. We migrate one business domain end to end, run old and new in parallel until the numbers match, then expand. Big-bang lift-and-shift is where these projects fail.
How is Sparkle different from a body shop?
The same senior team from kickoff through delivery to support, no parking of juniors on your account, and we stay engaged after go-live instead of handing over and leaving.
