Charter Communications’ journey to modern cloud analytics architecture (PRT231)
summary
Charter moves three on‑prem Teradata 2800 systems to AWS VantageCloud Lake, 310 TB migrated using a hybrid backup‑and‑restore plus Data Mover approach and cuts production downtime to <4 hour production outage. Architecture uses S3 native object store, storage‑compute separation, elastic multi‑cluster scaling, QueryGrid federation to avoid full data centralized loads, and Vantage Unit cost tracking; fixes include increasing TPT buffer to 16 MB and mitigating fallback‑space overhead. Outcome: faster self‑service sandboxes, built‑in ML (GLM, nPath, clustering), geospatial and time‑series analytics.
