Optimize and Transform Data Operations

Turn data operations to an advisory center.

Better use of applications and analytics helps the organization to tap into new revenue streams and/or optimize cost.


Your Challenge

  • The cost for running databases is high, diverting valuable data management budget from strategic data initiatives such as data governance, data quality, MDM, and BI/Data warehousing.
  • A lot of server space is needed to store databases instances (production, test, dev and sandbox), driving storage and maintenance costs.
  • The footprint of unstructured data is growing over the years, yet data operations traditionally focuses on structured data.
  • New data management technologies are emerging, complicating the data operations landscape.
  • Management does not understand data operations well enough, managing that team and creating a plan for that team is a challenge.
  • Data operations is seen as a cost center, getting constant pressure to streamline data operations.
  • The data operations team, collectively, have a wealth of knowledge on the data assets and the information being stored. The knowledge is not proactively leveraged in other information initiatives.


Our Solution
