Data Architecture Services

Data is your most valuable asset. Collaborative business/IT portfolio management requires the ability to access information previously locked up in your legacy systems of record. We deliver data architecture strategies that unlock your systems of record and authoritative data sources, while implementing “derived” data sources (including streamed data) needed by your AI initiatives. Outcomes include:

  • What is “Optional” data?

  • Derived data strategies - finding the treasure that you already own

  • AI strategies for your business are uncovered (if they exist and if they are needed)

  • API Management and data governance are linked

  • What’s a data mesh?
