“There were 5 exabytes of information created between the dawn of
civilization
through 2003,
but that much information is now created every two days.”
~ Eric Schmidt, Executive Chairman at Google
In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, business across all industries
are
realizing the importance of digital business information to stay competitive and
relevant. At the core of this digital transformation journey is Data
Engineering, which
plays a vital role in enabling Organization to collect, store, process and
analyze
massive amounts of data in real-time. Data Engineering enables business to
design, build
and manage infrastructure, platforms and tools to enable business to capture
and
harness the value of data regardless of where the data is cloud, on-prem etc.
Owing to Digitization, Organizations are witnessing:
- Rapid movement to cloud
- Increased confidence in the cloud and outsourcing model as enterprises have
more
stable platforms and evolved technologies/business models
- Significant trend across all firms to make the shift to Digital world
choosing
flexibility as
markets are more agile and unpredictable
- Data collaboration empowers and delivers the greatest amount of new
intelligence
The above trends require effectively optimizing the enterprise data for growth
ignition
and managing the risk across all layers. This requires the client leadership
team to
structure the organization and associated processes seamlessly having a simpler
operational workflow.

Data Consulting
We provide independent framework and guidance which are tactical and strategic
on
various aspects of data for organisations to leverage their data assets, assist
in
decision making process and meet the business goals involving the key areas.
- Define and create data strategy aligned to the business goals by evaluating
and
identifying data sources, benchmarking data quality standards, creating
governance
frameworks as part of the process.
- Ensure actionable insights are derived, various statistical analysis
methods, data
mining, predictive modelling are performed to know the trends, patterns and
various
correlations with the various data sources.
- Evaluate current infrastructure and systems covering the storage of data,
various
process and provide optimisation recommendations of the infrastructure and
systems.
- Ensure data quality, security and compliance with various data privacy
laws, we
assist organisations by creating a data framework for governance and
associated
policies.
Data Architecture
- To establish a robust and scalable data architecture framework, we create
the
complete
design and structure covering the organisations data assets, various
technologies/systems by
focussing on data modeling, integration of the data, storage and management
of the
same.
With strong technology evaluation and selection, the organisations data
utilization
needs are
kept in focus along with governance and security without compromising on the
scalability and
performance.
Data Migration
We focus on the specific needs of the client and the solution is devised with an
objective to ensure data migration between systems are carried out by ensuring
data
integrity, quality and various compliances through the migration process. As
part of
the exercise, we carry out the initial data assessment, data mapping, extraction
and
load of the data before end to end migrating testing services with various on
premises, open source and cloud based tools which are reflected below.
- On-premises: Oracle Data Service Integrator, IBM Infosphere, Informatica
PowerCenter etc
- Open-source: Talend Open Studio, Apache NiFi, Apache Airflow
- Cloud-based :AWS Migration Services, Stitch Data, Snaplogic, Fivetran
ETL/ELT
- This solution completely helps to align the process of data extraction,
transformation and loading from disparate data sources agnostics of
cloud/on-prem
effectively without affecting the integrity of data. By using various
standard tools
like Informatica, IBM Infosphere Datastage, SAS, Oracle Data Integrator,
Microsoft
SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS), Hadoop, Talend, AWS Glue, Azure Data
Factory
etc , the team is able to streamline the entire ETL process seamlessly.
Data Analytics
- Focus is on automation of techniques and process of data analytics to
enable raw
data conversion by looking at various approaches like descriptive analytics,
diagnostic analytics, predictive analytics, prescriptive analytics. We carry
out
design, development and implementation of robust process for analysis of
structured,
semi structured and unstructured data and engage with various leading
analytics
tools to meet the business objectives.
Test Data Management
- Our Test data management streamlines the testing process, focused on quality
of test
data and also ensure confidentiality & sensitive nature of the data is
protected
along with providing controlled data access to project teams throughout the
Software
Development Lifecycle (SDLC).
- We carry out the test data provisioning, Data Masking and Anonymization
along with
Data subsetting to reduce storage requirements and more importantly focus on
the key
data set required for testing rather than the complete data set. Some of the
TDM
tools we have used in various projects include K2View, Tricentis, IBM TDM,
Informatica, BMC, Delphix. These tools help in synchronisation of data from
multiple
sources and also achieves more robust testing function while also ensuring
data
privacy and security are protected.
Reporting and data visualisation services
-
Design and development of the reports by collaborating with various
stakeholders to
understand the reporting requirements, key metrics to be leveraged and more
importantly design & deliver an intuitive and interactive dashboard,
various
customisation requirements that are to be plugged as part of the customised
reporting need. The reporting and visualisation tool we leverage are
generally SAP
Analytics Cloud, Visual.ly, Sisense, MicroStrategy, IBM Cognos, Looker, Qlik
Sense
etc
- These reports, dashboard offers view on the entire business performance
along with
helping to look at real time analysis, facilitate data driven decision
making
process and provide visually appealing reporting templates.
Information is the oil of the 21st century, and analytics is the combustion
engine.”
