We help enterprises put Databricks to work as more than a data platform. Instead of stopping at migration, we take on the full Databricks services lifecycle: Assessing your data estate, modernizing it, embedding governance from day one, putting enterprise AI and agents into production, and then running the platform so it keeps delivering.

Most enterprises come to us running fragmented systems for extract, transform, load (ETL), warehousing, machine learning and reporting, with AI stuck in pilot and costs that are hard to predict. Our Databricks migration services consolidate that estate onto one governed lakehouse, using our own AI-accelerated migration and ingestion frameworks to get you there faster.

We're a Gold Databricks Partner with all four 2026 Databricks Brickbuilder Specializations.

Why choose DXC as your Databricks consulting partner and implementation collaborator

Databricks provides the toolkit, and DXC engineers use it to deliver the outcome you need. With our enterprise Databricks consulting services, you’ll work with one accountable team across the whole lifecycle.

Common challenges we help solve with Databricks

Consolidating data and AI on one platform sounds simple. In practice, fragmented estates fight the process at every step. Here's how we help you get past these obstacles:

I

Fragmented, costly legacy estates

Separate systems for ETL, warehousing, analytics and AI carry separate definitions, drive up cost and slow everything down. Engineers spend their weeks nudging pipelines, and every new source is rebuilt from scratch. We architect one governed lakehouse under Unity Catalog and deliver a reusable conversion factory — definitions live with the data, every consumer inherits one set of rules, and the second source costs materially less than the first.

II

More systems in, nothing switched off

Every program adds a platform without retiring one. The migration that was supposed to simplify the estate never quite finished, and the team learns about failures from the users it's failing. Our Databricks AI services sequence conversion waves so legacy can actually be decommissioned, with evidenced equivalence, a rehearsed rollback, and observability built in from day one.

III

Unpredictable platform costs 

Databricks on one invoice, cloud on another, professional services on a third — and none of them is a project bill. Dual-run keeps two platforms and two teams alive with no end date. We profile the estate before we price the move, tag compute, storage and AI tokens to the workload that triggered them, and join telemetry to the cloud bill so cost attribution becomes actionable. The conversion runs as a factory program with a finish line, giving dual-run a stated end date and a people cheque that shrinks.

Our Databricks Capabilities

Databricks advice, implementation and migration

We assess your estate, architect the governed lakehouse, convert workloads in controlled waves and hand off a bounded service, whether you're migrating legacy or building from scratch.

Data product accelerators

Agentic, standards-aligned ETL pipeline, data model and KPI creation that reduces time to market while ensuring governance adherence. Reusable patterns mean the second and third data product cost materially less than the first.

Analytic applications and simulation

Decision-support apps, what-if scenario modelling and simulation built on governed, reusable data products, that turns the Databricks Lakehouse into answers the business can act on, not just tables it can query.

MLOPs and AI acceleration & governance

Faster AI use-case delivery with model, agent and prompt governance, evaluation and guardrails built in. Models and agents move from pilot to governed production, not from pilot to pilot.

Context engineering and consumption

Semantic models, ontologies and AI context assets that make governed data understandable to people and agents, so the intelligence layer inherits your definitions rather than inventing its own.

Enterprise product lifecycle enablement

Data product catalog, publishing and the ability to maintain contracts, plus the operating model and enablement content to adopt and sustain it. Products stay governed after the project team leaves.

Databricks managed services

We take production ownership of the Databricks Lakehouse, with accountability, named service owners, observability that catches issues before users do, two-bill FinOps with challengeable unit economics, and human-in-the-loop approval on every consequential change.

Databricks migration paths we deliver:

SAP Business Data Cloud to Databricks

SAP data landed in Unity Catalog, rebuilt as bronze to silver to gold data products, reconciled against source. Zero-copy share is the landing, not the finish line.

SAP BW to Databricks

Object-by-object conversion: keep & migrate, simplify, rebuild or retire. Assessment is station one, dual-run gets an end date.

Microsoft SQL Server to Databricks

Delta tables plus Databricks SQL, procedures re-engineered rather than cloned. Wave packs from inventory through equivalence to acceptance.

APIs, XML and unstructured sources to Databricks

Custom crawlers onto bronze for sources with no native connector, including documents, transcripts and files, then Lakeflow for transform and orchestration under the same catalog.

Greenfield / net-new build

No legacy to convert. Governance and quality gates stood up before the first production write, data products built with the business, and a bounded service handed over on day one.

A partnership built for Enterprise Modernization for Data & AI

DXC’s Databricks services are designed for organizations that are modernizing legacy or fragmented data platforms while preparing their data foundations for advanced analytics and AI. We partner with global clients across diverse industries to support their transition from legacy or on‑premises environments to Databricks, enabling more scalable and flexible data architectures.

In doing so, DXC helps organizations establish trusted and well-governed data foundations that can reliably support both analytics and AI initiatives. Building on this foundation, we work with clients to develop and scale AI and generative AI applications, including copilots and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) solutions, tailored to business needs.

Beyond development, DXC focuses on operationalizing AI by implementing automated, agentic workflows that embed intelligence into day-to-day processes. We also enable seamless integration of SAP and non-SAP data using Databricks and SAP Business Data Cloud, ensuring a unified and accessible data environment. Finally, DXC accelerates delivery of industry-specific use cases through proven Databricks accelerators, helping clients achieve faster time to value and measurable outcomes.

Put your data to work: SAP Business Data Cloud (BDC) and SAP Databricks

By combining SAP BDC with Databricks, organizations will realize the full value of SAP data at scale. The SAP–Databricks partnership unifies SAP and external data without costly workarounds (Unified Data), ensures compliant governance and discoverability (High Trust), and operationalizes analytics, ML and agentic AI across the enterprise (Scalable AI).

DXC believes that the best outcomes come from applying the right platform for the right use case — using SAP Databricks to preserve the SAP‑native business context, and extending to Enterprise Databricks to blend the SAP and non‑SAP value‑stream data for better decisions across end‑to‑end processes. We have put this to the test with our manufacturing clients, using Databricks to ingest millions of shop floor and IoT signals and enrich them with SAP data — such as maintenance plans, production schedules and bills of materials (BOMs) — to power predictive insights and closed‑loop actions.

DXC can help transform your business by:

  • Defining the right SAP–Databricks integration approach for you, based on data gravity and your unique business needs
  • Assessing your SAP BDC readiness and supporting your modernization journey from strategy to implementation
  • Combining your SAP and non‑SAP data for value‑stream analytics and AI
  • Enabling agentic AI across SAP Databricks and Enterprise Databricks
  • Delivering industry use cases by enriching operational data with SAP context
