The future enterprise data architecture will have a data lake at its core because it offers the agility and scalability that enterprises require to derive timely, valuable business insights from data. But for a data lake to be successful, enterprises need a holistic, unified data management platform.
Aroha offers comprehensive, integrated solution to manage the complete data pipeline from data source to data consumer. The advantages are:
For over a decade, Aroha has provided enterprise data warehouse and data management agility solutions to companies looking for a competitive edge. Built from ground up with the most powerful databases, our data warehousing solutions are used for actionable insights and decision based analytics
Our design team design the ODS to integrate data from multiple sources for additional operations on the data. Unlike a master data store, the data is not passed back to operational systems. It may be passed for further operations and to the data warehouse for reporting.
Because the data originate from multiple sources, the integration often involves cleaning, resolving redundancy and checking against business rules for integrity. An ODS is usually designed to contain low-level or atomic (indivisible) data (such as transactions and prices) with limited history that is captured "real time" or "near real time" as opposed to the much greater volumes of data stored in the data warehouse generally on a less-frequent basis.
As enterprises are dealing with information from across different environements, we should have a process in place to acquire data. Enterprises typically deal with data from devices, cloud, on premise, market data in various file formats in regular intervals. In this part of information management, we provide our expertise on how companies should strageise and implement the data acqusiton layer and use the same for validation and reconciliation at any given part of data life cycle. To manage end to end data reconcilation between the ASIS stage to Analytics Data set for any reasons, we should have a process to connect the dots.
Data transformation is the process of transforming the data which is manageable, usable and meaningful to the business. This helps in maintaining data quality. Many times business will be getting data from various sources in its respective structure. Data may come from various ERP systems, RDBMS, Flat files, Excel sheets, XML, etc. Standardisation is a big issue in such cases. In this process of standardisation the data has to be transformed in a standardised format. Data mapping plays a vital role in this process.
Aroha has the expertise in understanding the data, implemented the best data mappings as per the customer needs to get the quality data.
Data Load is an ETL take away which extracts data, transform and load data from source to the target. The data sources might include sequential files, indexed files, relational databases, external data sources, archives, enterprise applications, etc. Facilitates business analysis by providing quality data to help in gaining business intelligence.
We help people wire the different source systems of the organization into a consolidated and integrated platform which helps the business team in gaining access to business critical data from a single structure.
Operational reporting is an approach in data analysis which is used to analyze near real-time to real-time data mainly to understand the day to day activities. There are traditional business intelligence reporting tools and dashboarding tools for creating operational reports. Traditional reporting tools deals with near real time data and the dashboarding tools deals with real time data.
Aroha has an expertise in understanding the needs of the customers, designing and delivering the operational reports with self-servicing capabilities with traditional reporting tools as well as dashboarding tools to some of their customers.
The reports which offer both information and analysis and also include recommendations. Offering recommendations is the game changer for a client here.
The development of this report focusses on investigating business life cycle and opportunities within the marketplace. This type of report provides advantages and disadvantages of taking a specific course of action whether investing in a company, buying a competitor, or investigating a new product venture.
Our solutions generates rapid reports that meet individual information requirements with ease. This allows end users to dynamically modify and drill through report data for powerful information analysis. This flexibility frees up valuable IT resources and gets information to end users on their own. You are immediately empowered to interact with the data.
Asking the right questions and then gathering, organizing, and presenting data to make informed decisions is not a trivial task. The ability to clearly see how you’re performing compared to goals and objectives, prior year performance, competitors, or industry standards enables you to make sound decisions and follow up with more questions that will help your company evolve. More and more organizations are turning to dashboards as a way to quickly understand and analyze their data. After all, the ability to transform your data into a dashboard that clearly identifies issues and opportunities requiring attention or action are invaluable to any company seeking to improve.

We help customers and the teams sink data on the same page and display business KPI's on our scorecard solutions which embed the power to the teams amd business to understand the business statistics and work towards improvised business goals.
In business, predictive models exploit patterns found in historical and transactional data to identify risks and opportunities. Models capture relationships among many factors to allow assessment of risk or potential associated with a particular set of conditions, guiding decision making for candidate transactions.

Always we know what best we can do with technology which is a good thing. We can assume and start our journey towards the best. In reality, when we go to customer some of them are not even having the basic infrastructure / platform to start the MIS.
In the above scenario, as companies / IT folks we have to lead them into analytics by providing 3 year road map. Give consolidated view to begin with which helps the business to validate and verify what they think is what is happening, as the next step find the stories which will have an impact on their savings or growth potential and then lead them to predictive analytics.
In theory, every business wants analytics. But based on the type of organization, their goals and aspirations the usage of analytics varies. As technology folks, we have to know where to draw line. Feeding a child who is not hungry is a battle. So, understand the customer's current ability to adopt analytics, create a road map which gives them the quick wins and lead them into analytical world.
So, in our process must include activities which helps both customer and implementation team to understand where to stop BI implementation. We have to include the cooling period once the roll out happens. BI enables the knowledge workers to gain more insights, this typically takes a bit longer than what we think.
Stage1: Show the integrated data in visual form (Dashboards) -- this helps to verify and validate their knowledge about their business and ask the right questions when the expected number or indicator is not inline with their view. Take the industry standard KPI's and show how the organization performs against the industry standard.
Stage2: Provide insights on why the business did not perform according to expectation or why few set of customers we lost or why our service to customers are rated low compared to market average. In this stage either success or failure have to be relate with events, place, person, time dimensions to business stakeholders.
Stage3: Predict what to expect tomorrow in your business based on standard statistical algorithms which is based on various dash boarding tools. Here both Data experts, business experts, statisticians work as a team to identify and address the variables which are very important to monitor.
Make sure in every step we are adding value to client by enabling them with more facts to link the dots in their business. Use the right tools to achieve the objectives which cuts down lot of implementation time. Educating business on what to expect from the analytics project should be part of Pre Sales activities in my view. This sets the stage where all the involved parties are on the same page.
