Does Kamiwaza require data migration?
No — connect to your data exactly where it lives
Kamiwaza does not require any data migration. This is one of our core architectural differentiators and one of the most common reasons enterprises choose Kamiwaza over alternative platforms.
How We Connect to Data
Kamiwaza deploys lightweight components wherever data lives, whether in cloud environments, on-premises servers, edge infrastructure, mainframes, etc. These components process data locally, within existing security boundaries. You get the benefit of AI acting on your data without any of the risk or cost of moving it.
What This Means for Your Organization
- No ETL pipelines to build or maintain
- No data lake infrastructure to stand up
- No multi-year harmonization projects before seeing results
- No compliance risk from moving regulated data outside its existing perimeter
- No disruption to existing systems or operations
Legacy Systems Are Not a Barrier
Kamiwaza's living ontology works across mainframes, legacy policy administration systems, carrier-specific document formats, and other infrastructure that traditional AI platforms can't handle without first reformatting the data. Your legacy systems are not a barrier to AI deployment; they are the starting point.
