Data, Analytics & Database Engineering

We help you design and engineer database solutions so your data is stored and accessed efficiently. We support schema design, normalisation and denormalisation, indexing and partitioning, high availability and disaster recovery, and technology selection (relational, NoSQL, NewSQL) so your database architecture matches your workload and scale. We work with cloud and on-premises platforms and can support migration and modernisation.

We help you deploy and implement databases in a consistent, repeatable way. We support installation and configuration, security hardening, backup and recovery setup, and deployment automation so your databases are provisioned correctly and maintained. We can run deployments for new systems or migrations and establish standards so your team can deploy with confidence.

We help you optimise database performance so queries run quickly and resources are used efficiently. We support query tuning, index design and maintenance, configuration tuning (memory, I/O, concurrency), and monitoring and capacity planning so you identify and fix bottlenecks. We can perform one-off performance reviews or ongoing optimisation and work with your DBA or development teams.

We provide database administration (DBA) so your databases are maintained, monitored and secure. We support day-to-day operations (backups, restores, patches, upgrades), performance monitoring and tuning, security and access management, and incident response so your databases stay available and compliant. We can act as your DBA team or supplement in-house capacity and work with SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL and cloud database services.

We help you design and implement data warehouses so you can consolidate data from multiple sources and support analytics and reporting. We support dimensional modelling, ETL/ELT design and implementation, warehouse architecture (on-premises or cloud, e.g. Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Azure Synapse) and incremental and full refresh strategies so your warehouse is scalable and maintainable. We work with your source systems and reporting requirements to deliver a warehouse that serves your analysts and business users.

We help you build and maintain business intelligence (BI) infrastructure so your organisation can visualise and analyse data. We support BI platform selection and setup (e.g. Power BI, Tableau, Looker), semantic layer and data model design, security and row-level security, and refresh and scheduling so your reports and dashboards are accurate and performant. We can design the BI layer on top of your warehouse or existing data sources and train your teams to build and maintain content.

We help you implement data analytics and reporting systems so you can turn data into decisions. We support report and dashboard design, self-service analytics enablement, scheduled and ad hoc reporting, and integration with operational systems so your stakeholders get the right information at the right time. We work with your BI tools and data sources to deliver reporting that is reliable, auditable and aligned with your metrics and KPIs.

We help you establish data governance and data integrity management so your data is defined, quality-assured and used responsibly. We support data governance frameworks, data ownership and stewardship, data quality rules and monitoring, master data management (MDM), and data lineage and cataloguing so you have visibility and control. We align with your compliance and audit requirements and can implement governance in parallel with your database and analytics work so quality is built in from the start.
