Data Management

If data is the foundation that supports your decisions and actions, then it is imperative that your data be relevant, complete, accurate, timely and consistent. To this end, effective data management is vital if you wish to minimise potential data problems and the damaging effects caused by them.

At Altron we have observed this and formulated a business led simplified and practical approach to Data Management initiatives. We will assist your business to clearly understand exactly where it stands within the current data management universe, how your data is currently gathered and captured into datasets and, most crucially, help in identifying current shortfalls that are the cause of pain points or that stand in the way of you achieving your goals. We will then develop a roadmap that you can adopt to ensure that you achieve your data management objectives.

Over the past 25 years, this has been well received by our clients as we have helped them define tailored roadmaps in ensuring these deliver on their intended business value.

We are also ensuring our clients Data Management strategies are extendable into the demands of digital transformation.

DATA PLATFORM

The digitalisation of business has meant that there are more data streams than ever before, both structured and unstructured, and Data Platforms are where we host this vast array of information gathered from many internal and external sources. This includes transactional data, social media, sensors and mobile devices. Altron will help you to leverage this information to adapt your products, services and strategies to better meet your customers’ needs, as well as to optimise operations and infrastructure, and to discover new sources of revenue.

To manage costs as you try to keep up with an increasingly sophisticated landscape of capabilities, we will provide you with the tools and techniques you require to capture the value of Enterprise Analytics at scale, consolidate data platforms and silos throughout the organisation, modernise your data platform capabilities and manage hybrid and Cloud workload migrations.

Altron has invested heavily in building a world class Data Platform practice that leverages a combination of the company’s own, extensive in-house knowledge and capabilities, alongside the power of an equally impressive partner network that can be brought to bear on every customer engagement.

The data specialists in this practice are here to help you make sense of your data, by assisting you to tackle the four ‘V’s whilst avoiding the pitfalls of sprawling cost and complexity.

Volume – this is the BIG in Big Data, and it is only growing bigger all the time. Bigger usually means more expensive hence optimizing costs and matching cost with business value is key.

Velocity – the principle of how quickly data is generated and consumed. More sophisticated technologies require more sophisticated processes and decision-makers.

 

Altron | Solutions | Data Platform

Ensuring that your business can keep up with the pace of information is more than a technology problem to solve.

Variety – Big Data comes from many sources, including enterprise systems, social media, and smart devices. Managing variety is not a one-size-fits all solution and will probably have different solutions tomorrow. Crafting an investment strategy to capture the value without resultant technical debt is key to a successful solution architecture.

Veracity – Big Data must be truthful and accurate. Industry experience has shown that most Data Lakes become Data Swamps that add little to no value. Avoiding this outcome requites a clear strategy.

To capture the business value that a modern analytics ecosystem offers, Altron partners with customers to build, manage, maintain and evolve Big Data, Data Warehouse, Data Fabric and Data Mesh solutions.
