Data Architecture Modernization: 6-Week Assessment

DataArt helps our clients evolve an insight-driven organization through data management and Agile BI systems and practices, and by enabling AI, machine learning and data science. We are uniquely positioned to extend our clients' existing solutions with Microsoft Azure capabilities by helping add them into their solution depending on the technology stack or type of infrastructure that the vendor currently has. The main modernization approach for Azure Data Platform includes: Azure Data Lake Storage (Gen2), Azure Synapse Analytics, Azure Data Factor, Azure SQL Server, Azure Power BI Service, Azure Data Explorer / Kusto etc.

Plan:

1. Capture priority business Data & Analytics use cases for the solution
2. Assess readiness for the modernization on the client side
3. Prepare and transfer artifacts that comprehensively describe the developed architecture
