Case study

Legacy Postgres to Business Central in One Month

A French retail group, 650 employees. Role placed: data engineer.

9 days from first call to data engineer on the job

The Situation

A French retail group with 650 employees was moving its operations to Microsoft Business Central. Years of operational data sat in a legacy Postgres database, and all of it had to arrive in the new ERP clean and structured.

The Problem

The legacy database could not be extracted through raw exports. Until someone found a way to get the data out, cleaned and structured, the Business Central rollout was blocked.

What We Did

We placed Yassine, a data engineer, 9 days after the first call. Like every Glodev developer, Yassine had passed live coding sessions and communication checks before we presented any profile. Yassine designed the migration pipeline on Airflow rather than Snowflake, a choice that cut the infrastructure costs of the project, then delivered clean, structured data ready to load into Business Central.

The Results

The full migration was delivered in 1 month, with the data clean, structured and ready for Business Central.
