Problem Statement
Our Solution
● Efficient data ingestion: We gathered data from different sources in Azure Blob Storage and ingested the data into PostgreSQL. The ingestion module was optimized to efficiently ingest data into the database. The solution also supports multiple customers with different configurations for ingestion.
● Pre-processing and preparation: Next, we pre-processed the data and cleaned it to store files in various Blob folders. The data was prepared for the Data Science team using configurations to generate accurate forecasts on clean data and for the Data Engineering team for Data Ingestion into the database.
● Data validation and accuracy improvement: We ensured that the data underwent data cleansing to ensure data quality, i.e., they were both correct and useful for analysis. This was done through data validation. Our experts also performed analysis and generated reports for accuracy improvement. Finally, we ran pipelines in their AI model to ensure the smooth processing of data for better decision-making.
● Continuous improvement: The solution will continuously monitor the data ingestion, pre-processing, preparation, and validation processes to identify areas for improvement.
