Build a Data Architecture Roadmap

Optimizing data architecture requires a plan, not just a data model.

The Situation

Data architecture involves many moving pieces requiring coordination to provide greatest value from data.
Data architects are at the center of this turmoil and must be able to translate high-level business requirements into specific instructions for data consumers using complex data models.
Data architects must account for the constantly growing data and application complexity, more demanding needs from the business, an ever-increasing number of data sources, and a growing need to integrate components to ensure that performance isn’t compromised.

Build a Data Architecture Roadmap visualization

Have a framework in place to identify the appropriate solution for the challenge at hand. Our three-phase practical approach will help you build a custom and modernized data architecture.

Identify and prioritize the business drivers in which data architecture changes would create the largest overall benefit, and determine the corresponding data architecture tiers that need to be addressed.
Discover the best-practice trends, measure your current state, and define the targets for your data architecture tactics.
Build a cohesive and personalized roadmap for restructuring your data architecture. Manage your decisions and resulting changes.
