Google Cloud Migration in Armagh

Moving Armagh workloads onto Google Cloud, most often when analytics is the driver — a data warehouse that has outgrown its server, or reporting that takes overnight and needs to take seconds. Containerised applications move well here too, since the platform was built around them.

Why this comes up

The problem

Data migrations get treated like server migrations, and they are not. Moving the machine is trivial; reshaping a warehouse schema for a columnar engine is the actual project, and it is where the value sits.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Project structure and billing set up before workloads arrive
  • Warehouse schemas remodelled for columnar storage rather than copied table for table
  • Historic data loaded and reconciled against the source, row counts and totals matched
  • Containers moved to Cloud Run or GKE depending on what the workload genuinely needs
  • Query cost controls and quotas set before the team gets access
  • Reporting tools repointed and validated against known-good figures

Google Cloud Migration in Armagh — common questions

Can we lift and shift straight into BigQuery?
You can load the tables, but copying a relational schema unchanged wastes most of the benefit and often costs more per query. Columnar engines reward different modelling — wider tables, fewer joins, partitioning and clustering chosen against real query patterns.
How do we know the migrated data is correct?
Reconciliation against the source: row counts, sums on numeric columns, and spot checks on known records. Reports are then run on both systems and compared before the old one is retired.
What about query costs once people start using it?
Quotas and maximum bytes-billed limits go in before access is granted. Without them, one analyst running an unfiltered query over a large table produces a memorable invoice line.
Do we have to move everything to Google?
No, and often you should not. Running analytics on Google Cloud while applications stay elsewhere is a common and sensible arrangement — it just needs the data pipeline between them designed rather than improvised.
Do you work with businesses across County Armagh?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Northern Ireland, including Armagh and the surrounding County Armagh area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Armagh businesses do you usually work with?
