01 / Scope
PoC is not go-live
A product evaluation proves fit; porting full estates from legacy vendor CDC products and other CDC tools, hardening for production, and cutover usually need purchased Professional Services hours.
Solution · Enablement
Get Gluesync into production with less risk
MOLO17 Professional Services helps you design and implement Gluesync efficiently — turnkey when you want the migration done for you, or enablement when your team or a certified partner owns delivery.
- 01 Data modeling & goals
- 02 Dev/staging & joint test
- 03 Production cutover & handover
The challenge
DIY burns time where sequencing matters
CDC and modernization projects stall less on “can we sync” and more on modeling, prerequisites, legacy script/metadata porting, reconciliation, and a controlled production handoff.
02 / Risk
Cutover without a rehearsal
Without joint validation of initial load + CDC + CRUD, and a planned promote-to-prod step, go-live couples switch, catch-up, and rollback into one window.
03 / Ownership
Different help levels
Some teams want MOLO17 to run the job so they don’t staff the migration; others want architecture, conversion, and training so they or a partner deliver.
Two ways to engage
Turnkey delivery or enablement — same playbook
Migration / turnkey
We do the job: data-modeling analysis, deploy into your infrastructure constraints, migrate/convert where needed, validate, and cut over — so your team doesn’t have to staff the project.
Enterprise / enablement
We enable; you (or a certified partner) do the job: free or self-serve PoC to evaluate the product, architecture review, then PS hours for migrating metadata and scripts from legacy vendor CDC products and other CDC tools, go-live hardening, training, and post-deploy availability. Joint enterprise PoCs (for example Kubernetes and security constraints) are available when you want production to start right.
Delivery can be MOLO17-led or partner-led with MOLO17 as L2 via the support portal. Scoping is deal-specific (hour packs, fixed consulting days, or turnkey outcomes) — talk with Sales; we don’t publish list tiers on this page.
How it works
WP1 → WP2 → WP3
- 01
WP1 — Data modeling & goals
Jointly discuss Gluesync modeling techniques against requirements and goals; gather architecture and data-model samples (classic scopes often land in a short workshop window).
- 02
WP2 — Dev/staging deploy & joint test
Install to your constraints; configure pipelines; migrate and convert metadata from legacy vendor CDC products and other CDC tools beyond PoC when in scope; jointly validate initial load, CDC, and CRUD.
- 03
WP3 — Production cutover & handover
Promote to production against agreed operational targets; training and portal access; engineers available post-deploy; optional remote consulting days or on-site (travel on customer) when needed.
Migration pattern we use in practice: small PoC samples → size the production offer → PS for the full estate (optional DevOps/API automation). Version upgrades (for example Gluesync 1.x → 2) can also be scoped as Professional Services.
What’s included
What engagements typically cover
- Named PS PM ownership of hours and delivery
- Requirements gathering, data-modeling analysis, and architecture review
- Deploy into your infrastructure constraints (test then prod)
- Hands-on connection setup and first test replications
- Metadata and script migration from legacy vendor CDC products and other CDC tools beyond PoC
- Joint validation (initial + CDC + CRUD), QA, optimization; Validator assists sync checks when available
- Production cutover sequencing (including listener/secondary and sizing on larger estates)
- Training, portal access, and post-go-live engineer availability
- Partner L1 / MOLO17 L2 support model
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Answers about engagement scope, delivery ownership, commercial models, and kickoff preparation.
What is the difference between a PoC and Professional Services?
A PoC evaluates the product. Migrating metadata and scripts from legacy vendor CDC products and other CDC tools, production hardening, and cutover are Professional Services-scoped hours or a turnkey engagement.
When should we choose self-service instead of Professional Services?
Use trial or self-service when your environment and team are ready. Use Professional Services when you want modeling, conversion, validation, and cutover owned or co-owned with MOLO17.
Can a partner lead the engagement?
Yes. A certified partner can lead with MOLO17 as L2, MOLO17 can run the project turnkey, or MOLO17 can enable your internal team after an architecture review.
Are engagements sold as hour packs or turnkey projects?
Both models are available. Turnkey engagements scope an outcome, while hour blocks add flexibility. Package sizes are commercial choices rather than public catalog tiers.
What should we prepare before kickoff?
Prepare system requirements, a source and target inventory, credentials, the trial kit from Get Gluesync, and any proxy, allow-list, or internet-access requirements.
