Project Context

A hospital center needed to modernize its Big Data infrastructure. Its Hadoop HDP environment was reaching end-of-support and showed technical limitations in both performance and security.

The complexity of the hospital’s IT system — including electronic medical records, patient management systems, and telemedicine platforms — required a carefully managed migration, ensuring the continuity of patient care without disruption.

Objectives

The main goal was to ensure a smooth and secure transition to Cloudera Data Platform (CDP) in order to:

• Improve performance and security of critical systems
• Ensure compliance with healthcare regulations
• Reduce operating costs while modernizing the Data environment

Mission Duration

A multi-month project, structured around diagnostic, migration, and production phases, followed by post-migration support.

Implementation

To deliver this strategic migration successfully, Agaetis deployed a rigorous methodology:

• Audit and planning: Analysis of the existing HDP environment and identification of data to migrate
• Migration plan: Definition of required resources, timeline, and organization of key steps
• Execution: Transfer of data, metadata, workflows, and applications to CDP with optimized configuration
• Validation tests: Verification of data integrity and post-migration performance
• Optimization & production: Fine-tuning for maximum performance and user training on CDP’s new features

Results Achieved

• Increased performance: Faster, more stable critical systems
• Enhanced security: Regulatory compliance ensured for managing sensitive medical data
• Cost reduction: 10% decrease in operating costs, representing annual savings of €100,000 on a €1M budget
• Continuity of care maintained: Migration completed with zero service interruption

Key Success Factors

• Agaetis’ expertise in complex Big Data migrations
• Secure, phased approach tailored to sensitive hospital environments
• Transparent communication with the client’s IT teams
• Comprehensive training and knowledge transfer for end users
