Implementation of use cases with Microsoft HDInsight and Azure

Starting point

  • The department has no way to analyse data across applications
  • Due to the lack of an integrated and consolidated view of the production data, analytical potential is lost

Procedure

  • Demonstrating the feasibility of use cases with Hadoop
  • Recommendation of a Data Lake concept
  • Use of Hadoop components for various use cases
  • Utilisation of a cloud-based Hadoop cluster
  • Use of Hadoop for the central storage of all production data

Features/Project outcome

  • An integrated data repository of unstructured and structured data in a modern data analytics architecture using both classical and NoSQL technologies
  • Creation of a future-proof and scalable business analytics architecture in the cloud

Customer benefits

  • Long-term analyses over any period with unlimited levels of detail
  • Relieving the existing enterprise architecture and RDBMS
  • Cost reduction through more affordable storage in Hadoop
  • Empowering departments to adapt the benefits of big data approaches
