Our Big Data Lakes Process

For our Big Data Lake and Analytics consulting services, we initiate with a two-pronged approach that includes -

1. A systematic analysis of business, data and analytics at your enterprise, which will then lead to the formulation of the overall implementation strategy. This step includes -
   • Customers
   • Decisions
   • Data
   • Analytics
2. This is then followed by a clear road map for Data Science solutions roll-out, and focuses on -
   • Use Cases
   • Infrastructure
   • Team

A typical Data Science journey for a financial enterprise involves the following stages -

• We start with designing and building a scalable (big) data infrastructure
• Thereafter, we help in Identifying and implementing demonstrator use cases
• We create structured plus unstructured data repositories
• We add internal data sources (e.g., from different departments) and external data sources as well such as competitor's websites, 3rd party data, social media profiles, etc.
• We empower your internal teams with requisite data science skill sets
• We perform advanced analytics on the pooled data
• Designing further AI & Machine Learning use cases
• We help you in generating new opportunities for customer satisfaction, limiting attrition of existing customers, acquiring new customers, and growing the share of wallet for existing customers
• In time, we can help you evolve as a forerunning player in the market when it comes to data-centric intelligent decision making

However, the actual implementation of each of these steps varies significantly from enterprise to enterprise. For example -

• First set of use cases which need to be implemented and those from which maximum ROI can be obtained in a short time are usually different for different enterprises
• Cluster scoping, technology and application migration plans, etc. can vary significantly as do hardware and software choices
• Choices like on-premises versus cloud installation of data and computing infrastructures, when to integrate unstructured data into decision making, etc. also vary significantly

To plan these aspects systematically and correctly, we perform an initial structured study of your current and potential customers, and of the available and required data and what sort of analytics to employ in order to analyze them in the best possible manner.
