Migration
Our migration tool converts your Pentaho setup into Integrate.io pipelines automatically, and our Solution Engineers validate the results and finish the move with you.
Trusted by 1,100+ data and ops teams saving millions of IT tickets with Integrate.io
Pentaho Data Integration (Kettle) is a long-standing ETL tool, now an independent business unit of Hitachi. It is flexible but Java-heavy to extend, and self-managing it is an ongoing burden. Integrate.io replaces it with a fully managed platform, and our migration tool converts your transformations and jobs so you keep the logic without keeping the maintenance.
The migration tool does the mechanical work, our Solution Engineers do the rest.
We inventory your Pentaho setup from an export or its configuration, so nothing is missed before the move.
Every Pentaho component and connection is matched to its Integrate.io equivalent.
The migration tool rebuilds your jobs and translates the logic automatically. Anything it cannot translate with confidence is flagged for a Solution Engineer.
We run both platforms in parallel and compare outputs before you commit.
Your current setup keeps running until the new pipelines are proven, then you switch over with a Solution Engineer alongside you.
Extending Kettle means Java and plugin knowledge that is harder to hire for every year, and custom steps become code only a few people can maintain.
You own the servers, JVM upgrades, plugins, and patching, plus the troubleshooting when a job fails overnight.
Moving between major Pentaho versions means testing every transformation and plugin again, so teams often stay on older releases longer than they should.
The tool is designed to flag anything it cannot translate with confidence rather than guess, so a Solution Engineer gets a clear worklist. How much converts automatically depends on your export and how your jobs are built, and a free dry run shows you before you commit.

Transformations convert automatically up front, and most Pentaho migrations cut over within one to three weeks.
Free dry run
Share a sample of your Pentaho setup and we will run it through the migration tool and send back a migration report: what converts automatically, what a Solution Engineer finishes, and a scoped plan. No commitment.
Talk to a Solution Engineer. We will run the converter against your Pentaho setup and map a clean path onto Integrate.io.
FAQ
Clear answers to the questions teams ask when evaluating Integrate.io.
Still have questions?
Talk to an expert →Yes. The migration tool maps Pentaho transformation steps and job entries to Integrate.io components and rebuilds the flow into runnable pipelines. Custom scripting steps are flagged for a Solution Engineer to rebuild.
No. Integrate.io is fully managed, so there are no Kettle engines, servers, or upgrades to maintain once you have moved.
Custom plugins are inventoried in your migration report so we can build native equivalents in Integrate.io during the white-glove phase.
