Big Data / Data Analytics
The term “Big Data” refers to the collection, storage and processing of data sets or data streams that are… voluminous! A rule of thumb would be to say that it won’t fit on one hard drive – and has to be distributed – it’s big data.
Regardless, all digital systems generate a range of data. Getting insights on that data – turning it into actionable information – is the job of data analytics work.
We use techniques such as data warehousing and deploy different types of databases (relational, document, graph, KV-store) depending on the situation at hand. We work with various reporting and processing technologies including Power BI, Grafana, SSRS and more to help our customers gain actionable insights.
