IRVINE, CA – June 24, 2025 – Caylent, an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Premier Tier Services Partner, today announced Caylent Accelerate™, an AI-powered solution that enables organizations to modernize their legacy databases up to three times faster than previous approaches. Designed to derisk and speed up complex database migrations by moving to open source databases on AWS, Caylent Accelerate helps customers eliminate licensing costs, lower total cost of ownership, reduce risk, and unlock modern cloud-native capabilities faster.
Legacy databases—especially proprietary systems—are a costly barrier to business growth. These systems account for over $200 billion in annual licensing spend and contribute to more than $2 trillion in technical debt across U.S. enterprises. However, migrations to open source alternatives are notoriously slow, manual, and error-prone, often requiring niche expertise and months of effort—factors that lead many organizations to delay the modernization necessary to innovate and scale their business.
Caylent Accelerate directly addresses these challenges with a highly automated, AI-first approach that delivers a 70% reduction in manual effort. Built on Amazon Bedrock and powered by large language models (LLMs), Caylent Accelerate translates complex SQL code, maps dependencies, generates test cases, and delivers migration-ready output with expert oversight. This combination of AI and human-in-the-loop validation ensures speed, accuracy, and business continuity.
Bobby Land, chief product and technology officer at Teamfront, a strategic partner for founder-led software companies, and a Caylent customer, said, “Caylent Accelerate allowed us to seamlessly migrate from SQL Server to Aurora PostgreSQL with AWS instances—with minimal disruption and immediate access to modern, scalable infrastructure. Without it, manually migrating and testing each stored procedure would have required thousands of hours of effort. Caylent Accelerate cut through the complexity and dramatically reduced the migration effort, achieving a time savings for us of over 90%.”
Unlike “lift-and-shift tools” or other traditional approaches, Caylent Accelerate fast-tracks both the technical execution and strategic outcomes of modernization. It eliminates licensing costs, shortens project timelines, and enables enterprises to consolidate technology stacks for greater operational efficiency. With seamless integration into Amazon Aurora, Amazon RDS, and Amazon Redshift, Caylent Accelerate helps organizations unlock open, scalable, AI-ready infrastructure that supports long-term growth and innovation.
“We designed this solution to automate the hardest parts of database migration—from translating stored procedures to validating new code,” said Lori Williams, CEO at Caylent. “With Caylent Accelerate, we’re collapsing the time it takes to eliminate technical debt and freeing our customers to focus on building what’s next. This is the future of services: productized expertise, purposeful automation, and a relentless focus on outcomes that scale.”
