How we ensure DWH implementation success
Data warehousing solution interoperability
We integrate your data warehouse solution with all your data sources, such as ERP, CRM, finance platforms, and corporate websites, as well as analytics and BI software. Additionally, we equip your data warehouse with pre-built connectors for easy integration with other data sources.
Future-proof architecture
We create data warehousing solutions, allowing easy upgrades and integrations and ensuring adaptability to new technologies and data formats.
Autonomy & automation
We employ various technologies that automate data warehouse administration and maintenance tasks, such as data backups, data quality management, security updates, and metadata management.
Focus on security
To protect the data stored in your DWH solution, we set up robust security mechanisms, including sensitive data encryption and masking, granular access controls, and multi-factor authentication. Our comprehensive security measures guarantee adherence to industry standards and protection against evolving cyber threats.
Data warehouse deployment models
Our consultants will help you choose a data warehouse platform and deployment model based on your business strategy and requirements and the existing IT infrastructure.
On-premises
On-premises data warehouses grant you complete control over your data warehouse's hardware and software infrastructure. Our team can set up your DWH solution on a local server, ensuring minimized latency, high availability, security, and compliance with data governance regulations that require keeping data on-site.
Cloud
A cloud-based data warehouse model allows for faster deployment, minimized upfront costs, and solid fault tolerance and disaster recovery. Our experts choose the most reliable cloud service providers, such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform, for deploying and managing your data warehouse solution.
Hybrid
A hybrid data warehouse combines the benefits of both cloud and on-premises deployment models. We can build a solution that lets you fully enjoy cloud flexibility and scalability while maintaining control over your data and meeting stringent regulatory requirements.
Our DWH solution implementation process
1
Discovery & business requirements definition
We start by interviewing end users of your future DWH solution to understand better how it should meet your business needs and objectives. At this step, we also define types of routine data analysis and data management practices currently in place and assess your data security requirements.
2
Data warehouse conceptualization
Using insights gathered after a careful business and system requirements analysis, we define your future DWH solution's scope and optimal feature set.
3
Technology selection
After defining the architectural approach to building your data warehousing solution, we choose appropriate technologies for each component. At this phase, we also help you decide on the optimal deployment model for your DWH solution — on-premises, cloud, or hybrid.
4
Data modeling & DWH environment design
We identify data sources, analyze the information they contain, perform conceptual and logical data modeling, and convert created models into database structures. This step also involves designing ETL pipelines and establishing data access and usage policies.
5
Development
Our team configures selected technologies and develops DWH infrastructure components, including ETL pipelines and a data security component. Next, our data engineers integrate DWH components with the existing data environment.
6
Testing & launch
We conduct comprehensive testing activities that assess data warehouse performance and verify data quality in terms of legibility, completeness, and security. After that, we provide the necessary training to end users and deploy your DWH solution to production.
7
Post-launch support & maintenance
We continuously monitor DWH performance, integrate additional data sources, and fine-tune models as needed to maintain the effectiveness of your solution over time.
