For Enterprises
Infuse Expertise into Your Data-Intensive Projects

2-WEEK DATA-INTENSIVE INITIATIVE JUMPSTART
Are you planning a data-intensive initiative? Targeted Marketing, Predictive Maintenance, Internet-of-Things, Customer Retention or most any other modern initiative are data-intensive. Their success is largely dependent on access to high-performing, high-quality, supported and understandable data. You may be planning to build or improve a leverageable platform such as a data lake or a data warehouse to support the initiative.

PROOF OF CONCEPTS AND MINIMUM VIABLE PRODUCTS
Are you planning to launch a cloud data warehouse, a Big Data/NoSQL/Hadoop/Cloud Storage/Data Lake structure, Master Data Management, or a Data Integration/Prep/Streaming project? These need to be built to give users and applications access to high-performing, high-quality, supported and understandable data, and need to built as agile. This agile need means producing an MVP (minimum viable product) or Proof of Concept (POC), with the ability to expand from there.
