Matillion Launches Maia's Migration Agent

Autonomous Migration for Legacy ETL Platforms

New capability converts legacy ETL pipelines from 14 platforms to modern cloud data warehouses — compressing multi-quarter migration programs into weeks.
 

Denver and Manchester, UK – March 26 2026 — Matillion today announced the public preview of Migration Agent, a new capability within Maia, its flagship AI Data Automation platform, that autonomously converts legacy ETL pipelines into native, warehouse-optimized pipelines on Snowflake, Databricks, and Amazon Redshift.

Migration Agent addresses one of the most persistent and costly challenges in enterprise data modernization: the inability to move off legacy ETL platforms without committing to expensive, multi-quarter consulting engagements. With Migration Agent, teams can convert pipelines from 14 legacy platforms — including Informatica PowerCenter, Alteryx, IBM DataStage, SSIS, Oracle ODI, SAS Enterprise Guide, and dbt — with no manual rewrite and no GSI dependency.

How it works

Unlike conventional migration tools that replicate legacy logic into a new environment, Migration Agent performs a predictable, structured conversion. Maia parses the original transformation logic, dependency graphs, and pipeline metadata, then reconstructs each pipeline as a native, warehouse-optimized ELT pipeline. Unsupported or ambiguous constructs are flagged explicitly for human review, ensuring transparency and correctness throughout.

Engineers move from builders, manually recreating pipeline logic step by step — to managers, inspecting generated pipelines that already preserve the original system's logic and structure.
