Microsoft Fabric Migration in Derry

Migrating Derry organisations onto Microsoft Fabric, where a useful amount of data may not need to move at all. Shortcuts let a workspace reference data where it already sits, so an estate spread across storage accounts and lakes can frequently be brought into one view without a copying exercise nobody wanted to fund.

Why this comes up

The problem

The migration plan involves copying several terabytes between storage accounts before anyone has established that it is necessary.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Existing storage assessed for what can be referenced rather than relocated
  • Workloads sequenced so the least dependent move first
  • Semantic models and reports migrated with their dependencies mapped
  • Pipelines rebuilt where the old orchestration does not translate cleanly
  • Access and workspace structure designed rather than reproduced
  • Old services decommissioned as each workload completes rather than left running

Microsoft Fabric Migration in Derry — common questions

Can we avoid moving data?
Often, for a substantial part of it. Referencing existing storage rather than copying removes duplication, avoids a migration window and means one authoritative copy — which is worth establishing before anyone budgets for a large transfer exercise.
What about our existing reports?
They generally migrate with modest effort, and their dependencies are the part to map. A report referencing a dataset that references a source that references something else needs the whole chain understood, and that chain is rarely documented anywhere.
Do pipelines translate directly?
Partially. Orchestration built in other Azure services has an equivalent here and not always a mechanical one, so budgeting for rebuild rather than translation gives a more realistic estimate — and it is an opportunity to simplify pipelines that grew organically.
How do we avoid running everything twice?
Decommission as you go, workload by workload. The common failure is completing the interesting migrations and leaving the awkward ones on the old platform indefinitely, which means paying for both and maintaining two sets of knowledge for years.
Do you work with businesses across County Londonderry?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Northern Ireland, including Derry and the surrounding County Londonderry area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Derry businesses do you usually work with?
Cross-border trading systems for businesses working into Donegal, and manufacturing tooling for the north west. Beyond that we work across Manufacturing, Healthcare, Higher Education, Digital and Tourism.
Do you cover the areas around Derry?
Yes — we work throughout Northern Ireland, including Belfast, Lisburn. Derry is an urban area of roughly 85,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Londonderry region rather than the city boundary alone.
