AWS Transform now automates BI migration to Amazon Quick in days
Artificial Intelligence AWS Transform now automates BI migration to Amazon Quick in days Migrating to Amazon Quick doesn’t have to mean starting from scratch. Your dashboards encode hard-won domain knowledge: calculated fields your analysts perfected, layouts your executives rely on every Monday morning, security rules tuned to your org chart. You want AI-powered insights and serverless scale, but you’re staring at hundreds of dashboards and a migration estimate measured in months. Now you can significantly accelerate your migration to Amazon Quick, potentially reducing timelines from months to days. In this post, we walk through the full journey, from setting up your migration workspace in AWS Transform to subscribing to partner agents through AWS Marketplace to unlocking Amazon Quick capabilities that change how your organization consumes data. The real cost of staying on legacy BI If you’re running a legacy BI tool, you face compounding pressures that go beyond licensing fees: - You’re spending time on servers instead of analytics. Patching, scaling, and monitoring infrastructure takes effort away from the insights work that drives business value. Amazon Quick is serverless and fully managed, so there’s no capacity planning and no maintenance windows. - Traditional BI tools require custom engineering for AI-powered answers. Amazon Quick includes native AI capabilities that your teams can use to ask business questions in natural language and automate workflows directly from dashboards. - Your analysts wait too long for answers. Provisioning capacity, managing extracts, and troubleshooting performance creates bottlenecks. The Quick Sight SPICE in-memory engine delivers sub-second query performance at scale, and you can publish dashboards directly into your own applications using its embedded analytics APIs.

AWS Transform, an AI-powered service built to accelerate enterprise modernization, now answers that how for BI migration. Organizations already use AWS Transform to modernize mainframe applications, transform Windows and SQL Server workloads, migrate VMware environments, and modernize custom applications. Now, the same agentic AI platform extends to BI migration. Wavicle Data Solutions, an AWS Advanced Consulting Partner, integrates the EZConvertBI agents directly into AWS Transform, bringing deep Tableau and Power BI migration expertise for accelerating your cloud journey. How it works: A two-step, chat-based migration In AWS Transform, you create a workspace and launch migration jobs through a conversational interface. For BI migration, Wavicle provides four specialized agents available for purchase through AWS Marketplace: one Analyzer agent and one Converter agent for each BI migration source (Power BI and Tableau). Together, these agents deliver a guided, chat-based, AWS-native migration experience. Everything runs within your own AWS account: no data ever leaves your environment, no separate tools to procure, and no external data transfers to approve. This removes the security and procurement friction that typically slows migration projects. Regardless of your source BI tool, the migration follows the same two-step process:In the Analyze step, the analyzer agent connects to your…
