Setup and migration

Setup or migration service available
Yes
How the setup or migration service works
We identify key reports currently in use and then break down the data sources used to create those reports. We then work out how to satisfy the reporting requirement by a series of sprints. The project begins by connecting to source data required and storing it in a data lake. As the project progresses, more and more of the data is already in the data lake (eg. conformed dimensions). This approach brings a client along the journey of creating a data warehouse in the cloud. Best practice methodology ensures understanding by all users and most efficient use of cloud resources for both performance and cost.

Quality assurance and performance testing

Quality assurance and performance testing service
Yes
How the quality assurance and performance testing works
Data quality is key with data warehousing. Data quality, along with user understanding and query performances are the main reasons for a data warehouse. During development, ongoing unit testing is performed to ensure performance from the start. The methodology is proven and has been enhanced over the decades and fits very nicely in the cloud services on offer now. Once the solution is developed, EnterpriseBI will work with buyers to develop exhaustive test scripts to test the solution. Usually these test scripts are related to the requirements drawn up during the requirements gathering phase. Performance is also tested early and often. Best practice is adhered to to ensure no issues later on. Initial unit testing will show that the calculations are performing as they should. Unit testing is then repeated against typical live data volumes to ensure performance. Performance testing is also built into the testing scripts following development.

Fighting climate change

An effective data warehouse via a cloud system reduces the need for travel and encourages cooperation and engagement remotely. The use of cloud data centres and cloud computing benefits the environment by negating the need for on-premise computing.

Tackling economic inequality

Well built data warehouse solutions on the cloud ensure all users are engaged in working with up to data, accurate information. This allows organisations to focus on what they need to focus on without the hassle of complicated multiple versions of the truth. Key clients of ours are social housing providers. By building effective data warehouses for these care providers, they can focus on reducing economic inequality.

Equal opportunity

Democratising the task of creating a data warehouse engages all users in the process. This reveals makes the goals of the organisation transparent and opens up opportunity. The flexible nature of the solution we will develop will allow end users to suggest ideas and become involved with the process. Certain parts of an application require certain skills and the appropriate people will take on these tasks immaterial of barrier, the skill of the user is what's required.

Wellbeing

Data warehouse projects can be tedious, never ending and frustrating. Creating data warehouse solutions that are accurate, performant and pleasant to interact with will make the lives of end users easier. The fact that end users are under pressure to produce accurate and meaningful results means a high quality data warehouse alleviates this pressure..
