The fastest way to migrate your dbt projects to Databricks is here
Datafold now offers the fastest way to migrate dbt projects to Databricks—automating what once took months of manual work or expensive SI services. Our AI-powered Migration Agent handles everything from translation to validation, delivering production-ready dbt models in weeks. As an official Databricks Delivery Partner, we eliminate procurement friction so you can get started immediately.

If you're among the tens of thousands of teams using dbt, you've likely considered how its portability could let you optimize for different platform advantages. We’ve heard from many teams interested in moving their dbt workloads to Databricks for cost savings and unified AI/ML capabilities.
These teams face a common challenge: simply moving dbt projects to a new cloud warehouse can require months of manual work or SI services costs that offset the savings they’d gain from moving.
We solved that problem. Datafold now offers a streamlined experience for migrating dbt projects from any warehouse to Databricks—turning what used to be a months-long project (often demanding hundreds to thousands of engineer-hours from your team) into an automated solution that outputs fully validated code in just weeks.
We've cut out all the nonsense
Here's what makes this different from every other migration approach you've encountered: we've eliminated both the administrative and technical complexity that have made it challenging to justify moving dbt projects from platform to platform.
The process is remarkably simple:
- Connect your systems: Link your dbt project repo, legacy warehouse, and your Databricks account

- Hit start: Our AI-powered agent automatically handles code translation and validation
- Get production-ready code: We deliver translated dbt models in your repository of choice, complete with data validation proving parity

Our team will oversee the entire process, so if the Datafold Migration Agent identifies discrepancies or edge cases a human will jump in and make adjustments.
And because Datafold is part of the Databricks Delivery Partner Program, Databricks customers can contract with Datafold directly through their existing cloud platform agreements. No separate contracts, NDAs, or security reviews.
Perfect for full migrations or evaluations
Teams are moving their dbt projects to Databricks for cost optimization, performance gains, and access to unified AI capabilities. Others want to evaluate Databricks first—migrating a subset of their dbt models to run side-by-side comparisons before committing to a full migration.
Both scenarios previously required months of manual translation and validation work. Now either can be accomplished in weeks.
