Data Integration & BI Infrastructure \u00b7 Kemb GmbH<\/p>\n\n\n\n

YOUR DATA FROMANY SOURCE.ALL IN ONE PLACE.<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Data integration is at the heart of every functioning BI infrastructure: reliably consolidating raw data from various systems into a single location, rather than manually exporting and copying it together. We optimize existing BI infrastructures using Fivetran for integration, Snowflake as a cloud data warehouse, and dbt for transformation, so your data can scale instead of slowing you down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Problem<\/p>\n\n\n

Data is growing faster than the infrastructure designed to support it.<\/h2>\n\n\n

New data sources are being added, data volumes are growing, and the existing infrastructure was never built to handle this scale. Data silos prevent a comprehensive view, real-time analysis is not possible, and every new requirement becomes a custom solution rather than an extension of the system. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\n\n

The Approach<\/p>\n\n\n

Integration before evaluation.<\/h2>\n\n\n

We\u2019ll first optimize data integration and storage before we discuss new analyses. An analysis is only as reliable as the data it draws on. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n \u2192<\/span>\n Data sources are not linked to one another; each analysis requires manual work<\/span>\n <\/div>\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>

Your data sources are not connected to one another, and each analysis requires manual work<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>

Real-time analyses are currently not possible because the data arrives with a delay or is out of date<\/p><\/div>\n

Your existing infrastructure is reaching its limits due to growing data volumes<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>

You’re planning a cloud migration\u2014for example, to Snowflake\u2014but lack the in-house expertise to do so<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Less suitable if\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>

Currently, there is only a single, small data source that reliably maps to a spreadsheet sheet<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>

There is no BI infrastructure in place yet; in this case, it\u2019s worth focusing on setup and migration first, rather than optimization.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>

No one internally will be able to maintain or take responsibility for the optimized infrastructure later on<\/p><\/div>\n

FAQ<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

What does data integration mean in the context of BI infrastructure?+<\/span><\/h3>\n

Data integration involves automatically and reliably consolidating raw data from various systems into a single location, rather than manually exporting and copying it together. It serves as the foundation for all further analysis. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

How does Fivetran improve my data integration?+<\/span><\/h3>\n

Fivetran automates the data integration process and consolidates data from various sources into a central repository, which improves the accuracy and timeliness of your analyses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

What is a cloud data warehouse, and why Snowflake?+<\/span><\/h3>\n

A cloud data warehouse stores and processes your data in a scalable manner in the cloud, rather than on limited local hardware. Snowflake offers scalability, security, and cost-efficiency without requiring you to plan capacity in advance. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

What benefits does DBT offer in terms of optimization?+<\/span><\/h3>\n

dbt transforms raw data in your data warehouse into a usable, documented format, enabling more complex analyses without compromising data quality.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

How can I tell if my BI infrastructure needs to be optimized?+<\/span><\/h3>\n

Typical signs: Data sources are not connected to one another, real-time analysis is not possible, or the infrastructure slows down noticeably as data volumes increase.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Optimization or a complete overhaul\u2014which is right for me?+<\/span><\/h3>\n

Optimization is appropriate when an infrastructure is already in place but has reached its limits. If a structured infrastructure does not yet exist, rebuilding it\u2014that is, setting it up and migrating data\u2014is the right first step. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

How long does it take to optimize a BI infrastructure?+<\/span><\/h3>\n

That depends on the complexity of the existing infrastructure and the scope of the optimization. A targeted optimization of individual data sources can often be implemented in just a few weeks. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Do I need to train my team on the new tools?+<\/span><\/h3>\n

Not only do we hand over the optimized infrastructure, but we also train your team on Fivetran, Snowflake, and dbt so that the new systems can be used safely in day-to-day operations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
