Wrangling, conformance, comparison
We wrangle, dual-run, reconcile, and cut over, then prove it with a conformance suite.
Wrangling - the hard bit done well
The playbook covers everything from discovery to hand-off.
- 1.Scope success: KPIs, coverage, freshness, cutover date.
- 2.Discover and map systems, IDs, codebooks.
- 3.Ingest via CDC, APIs, files, including unstructured sources.
- 4.Canonicalise and link golden IDs with documents and objects.
- 5.Set policy and security across roles, ABAC, retention.
- 6.Run the Conformance Suite to reach >=95 percent coverage and doc-link recall.
- 7.Dual-run for 2-6 weeks and reconcile deltas.
- 8.Cut over, decommission, and export zero-copy archives.
- 9.Hand off docs, lineage, runbooks, and keys.
Readiness metrics
Coverage = 95%
Doc-link recall = 95%
Zero material deltas pre-cutover
Conformance Suite
Automated checks cover schema conformance, reconciliation, unstructured linking, and policy enforcement. Every milestone reports progress against the readiness metrics.
Comparison
Stack dbsof against lakes and orchestrators on what matters.
| dbsof | Lake | Orchestrators | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Centre of gravity | system of truth | analysis substrate | overlay or coordination |
| Unstructured | first-class | DIY | link to sources |
| Ops writes | yes | no | limited or write-back only |
| Openness | open tables + FRAND | open | varies |
| GPU-first | yes | engine-dependent | not applicable |
