Analytic Data Management Services

---

Together we’ll create a vision and strategy for your analytic data ecosystem that meets the goals of your company and stakeholders.

Whether you need a data lake, a data warehouse, a NoSQL database, or a data streaming pipeline, we will architect your ecosystem to fit your environment and strategy.  If you have requirements defined, we'll work to them; if not, we'll help you create and quantify them.

Wondering if your data platform can handle your next wave of demands?  Need to decide whether your new workload or data source should go on Hadoop or the data warehouse? Should you store on premises or in the cloud Which cloud should you use? We'll assess, measure, and make recommendations based on our expertise with scalability, performance, and data availability. If changes are needed, we’ll help you decide what to do. 

How should the cloud fit into your analytic ecosystem and how do you best manage your data in each cloud you use?  We’ll help you answer these questions.  If you’re putting large amounts of analytic data in the cloud you need effective and cost-effective data management architecture. This architecture must handle your use cases and provide data security, metadata management, performance, and scalability. Putting a data warehouse workload in the cloud isn’t automatically cost-effective. We’ll analyze your options using our engineering approach. Together we’ll create a solution that balances performance, cost, security and other needs.

Once the platform for a challenging database or workload has been selected, you still need a design. We’ll help you identify the critical engineering issues surrounding scale, performance and data availability. We’ll then work out optimal database design solutions. Whether you’re using open source or commercial data managers, whether SQL or NoSQL, whether cloud or on-prem, whether Hadoop or commercial platforms -- we have the expertise to create a practical and feasible design that avoids common pitfalls.  We'll collaborate with your existing team or work independently as you prefer. We have helped many leading companies successfully implement big data, fast data and complex data projects.

Are you well down your data architecture road and need a design review?  Want a pre-production review? Is something not working the way you expected? Could you use a higher-level reassessment such as a review of your roadmap? Our check-up of your key data architectural and data engineering issues will be action-oriented, in-depth and constructive. We'll identify key challenges and pitfalls, then offer strong solutions to help your team navigate to success.  

Or, if you want some counsel on a few key questions, we'll provide a phone consult or a brief onsite consult according to your needs.
