DATA WAREHOUSING

DATA WAREHOUSING

Architecture And Design

Whether you are building a large data warehouse for your enterprise or a series of small data marts for your business, we can design the right database for you. It is a common misconception that to have successful data warehouse you need lots of expensive tools. While some tools can indeed provide value, they do not always provide clear ROI. A more valuable data mart can often be developed with nothing more than a good design and simple tools like Microsoft Access. Data Warehouse Consultants has the experience to meet with you and help you move towards a data warehouse solution that will provide optimal value within your budget.

ASP.NET Application Development:

A well-built data warehouse can be accessed via many different types of applications. Many of our projects require custom-built web applications to serve the business requirements of the users. We therefore have developed significant experience creating ASP.NET web applications using the latest Microsoft technologies including .NET and AJAX. If you are looking for a firm to build your custom web application, we are experts in both application and database design no matter what type of database you want to use on the back-end.

Over time we have established a number of best practices for implementing batch processes with stability and efficiency.

There are many tools on the market that do this, and we have experience with most.

Data Model Review

Already have a data mart or data warehouse? Trying to figure out why it’s running slow or why you cannot get the right answer out of it? One of our consultants can review what you currently have in place and make suggestions for how to make it better. Top consulting firms routinely take their designs and conduct peer reviews to come up with the best solution. One of our consultants can fill this role for your company. Our philosophy is to take a collaborative approach to understand what you have done so far and make suggestions for improvements in the future. We will not criticize what has been done so far, but we will often challenge the status quo and challenge you to take the steps necessary to put an improved design in place for the benefit of your business and your data warehouse users.

Metadata Management

Mobissa Infotech is experienced in creation and configuration of metadata management tools. A single repository of business and technical definitions is critical for design, development, and implementation of any data warehouse. Metadata management is the first step in defining a single version of the truth, and the framework for building and scaling the data warehouse.
