Simplify a complex, siloed data estate with the right data pipeline

Enterprises seeking to mature their data strategies face a conundrum: data sources continue multiplying, but modern analytics rely on unified data to deliver optimum results. To realize the potential of their business data, enterprises must break down silos and find a way to integrate across platforms, models, and formats.

Unifying your data is a key first step

Data streams into your enterprise from every corner, but it arrives in incompatible formats, locked inside proprietary file types, or consigned to a siloed storage solution. As a result, your analytics are missing key pieces of the puzzle.

CBTS date engineers work to design, build and maintain the pipelines that collect, store and process your data. With all your data in one accessible place, there are no barriers to innovation.

WHAT IS DATA ENGINEERING?

Modern enterprises have access to a large and growing number of data sources, including Internet of Things (IoT) implementations, applications, SaaS platforms, external databases, and more. Data engineering integrates each source into the enterprise data architecture, allowing it to ingest and consolidate business data in a way that empowers future use in analytics and AI.

Organizations often re-architect their data estates as part of an effort to modernize and take advantage of cloud capabilities.

OUR APPROACH

Why CBTS?

Modern enterprises have access to a large and growing number of data sources, including Internet of Things (IoT) implementations, applications, SaaS platforms, external databases, and more. Data engineering integrates each source into the enterprise data architecture, allowing it to ingest and consolidate business data in a way that empowers future use in analytics and AI.

Evaluate data sources

Audit data sources and identify integration and transformation needs.

Design architecture

Develop pipelines and select optimal storage architecture.

Integrate

Establish ETL processes and implement a data lake and/or warehouse.

DataOps

Configure and streamline data flow monitoring and process controls.

The growth of AI has revealed new attack surfaces, and threat actors are finding novel ways to target modern enterprise data resources. Cybersecurity-informed data engineering protects your assets in transit and at rest, helping you mitigate the risk.

FAQs

Top 5 questions

What are data lakes and warehouses, and how do they differ from each other?

Both are large-scale data storage solutions. Data lakes store unstructured, unprocessed data in its original format. Data warehouses store data that has been processed to serve specific analytical purposes. A hybrid solution of the two is called a “data lakehouse.”

What is DataOps?

DataOps is an approach to designing, managing, and maintaining a data architecture. It emphasizes automation, collaboration, and continuous improvement to deliver improved performance.

What is an ETL/ELT process, and why is it important?

ETL stands for extract, transform, load, and ELT is extract, load, transform. Both data integration processes transmit data from a source to a storage location. An ETL process transforms the data into a usable format before loading it into storage, while ELT handles the transformation within the warehouse.

How does data engineering support AI development?

An enterprise AI model relies on unified, high-quality data. Good data engineering ensures that data is clean, accurate, and ready to be used for training when it arrives in the data lake or warehouse.

How do batch and real-time integration differ?

Both describe how data is pushed to the data lake or warehouse. Batch integration updates at regular intervals, whereas real-time integration sends new data as soon as it is available.
