PowerCenter to CDI-PC Modernization: Boart LongYear x aiDataWorks
aiDataWorks and Boart Longyear Successfully Complete Modernization of PowerCenter Platform to Informatica’s CDI-PC on IDMC
May 13, 2025
– Boart Longyear and aiDataWorks are proud to announce the successful completion of their CDI-PC ModernizationProject, migrating Boart Longyear’s legacy on-premise PowerCenter environment to Informatica's Cloud Data Integration for PowerCenter (CDI-PC) on the Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) platform.
This strategic migration process, called also “cloudification” within Informatica, included a comprehensive environment assessment, IPU (Informatica Processing Unit) estimation, secure agent setup, domain and repository migration from Oracle to SQL Server 2019, and a full upgrade of PowerCenter 10.4 to the latest CDI-PC. The project was completed ahead of time, before the PowerCenter license expiration, ensuring business continuity and unlocking cloud-native scalability.
“This project exemplifies seamless execution and collaboration with aiDataWorks. The entire cloudification was delivered without a single escalation, with all workflows fully functional post-migration,” said Satish Bathula, Business Intelligence Manager at Boart Longyear. “It’s a great example of how organizations can modernize their data infrastructure, maintaining high-security levels and without business disruption.”
The joint effort also delivered critical documentation and post-production support, including knowledge transfer and workflow-level IPU reporting, allowing Boart Longyear to optimize operational costs. As a direct outcome, Boart Longyear has already started reducing monthly IPU consumption by 60–70 units, with further efficiencies projected in the coming months.
“We appreciate the partnership with Boart Longyear and Informatica throughout this transformation,” said Mohak Jani, Project Manager at aiDataWorks. “This successful migration not only modernizes our infrastructure but also sets us up for future scalability as we explore ERP modernization and Oracle Fusion Cloud integrations.”
Looking ahead, Boart Longyear will continue optimizing IPU usage and evaluating potential pathways from CDI-PC to native CDI, aligned with their broader digital roadmap. The partnership remains committed to innovation, sustainability, and data-driven excellence.
