Data Quality
Data in the real world rarely comes with any guarantees. Characters appearing where only numbers are expected. Dates in differing formats. Poor quality data can easily confound a simple analytics task. At ProCogia, we realize the importance of data quality and the attention it deserves.
- Data Profiling
- Data Cleansing
- Data Wrangling
- Data Monitoring
Data Architecture
ProCogia has experience designing architectures which encompass elastic scaling, high availability, end-to-end security for data in motion and data at rest, and cost and performance scalability.
- Automated Data ETL
- Data Warehousing
- Data Lakes
- Data Marts
Cloud Engineering
We can work with the cloud provider of your choice, or help you to migrate your existing on-premise solution to one.
- Azure
- AWS
- GCP
- Snowflake
Big Data Engineering
Cost effective data warehousing of very large data sets depart from standard SQL databases such as Postgres or SQL Server, in favour of solutions in which storage and compute are separated. ProCogia can help you leverage the benefit of modern data processing technologies.
- Spark
- Databricks
- Hadoop
- Kafka
Technologies Used In Cloud Data Engineering
Supporting Clients with ProCogia Data Engineering Solutions
Snowflake Data Warehousing
Services used – S3, IAM, Snowflake, Azure AD
We helped a telecom client to build their data warehouse from scratch. From the staging, which was AWS S3, we sourced the data into Snowflake using S3 Integration and Staging components. Then we flattened the JSON raw files in the DI layer and built dimensional model for the client’s reporting and analytics requirements. Next, we built a presentation layer with secure views that was used by customers and analysts to explore data. Importantly, the entire pipeline was in near real-time which was scheduled every other hour. Our solution made data available in a 1-hour latency.
Apache Airflow Setup
Services used – EC2, Apache Airflow
Apache Airflow is the new favourite tool for many ETL developers thanks to its flexibility and scalability. We not only installed Apache Airflow on an AWS EC2 instance, but also configured it to interact with Snowflake and EMRs. This enables the running and management of big data and data warehousing ETL jobs from a common interface.
S3 File Compactor
Services used – S3, EMR, Lambda
Parquet files works best when the file size is in the range of 500-1000MB. But this cannot be controlled if you require low latency real-time data in your data lake. We devised an automated script which we scheduled using EMR and Lambda to run weekly. This script will crawl every single dataset folder inside an S3 bucket, check for any small silos of files, and compact them into equal-sized parquet files. This solution has made query retrieval 4 times faster.
Big Data Anonymization
Services used – S3, Lambda, EMR, Athena
Data anonymization is an important task, especially in companies that have data retention policies in place. Data governance policies specify that data should not be kept in its original form, and needs to be anonymized, after a specified amount of time. We developed and implemented a workaround to anonymize PII data so that we can comply with regulations without losing the data in the longer term. To achieve this, we automated the process using EMR and Spark scripting.
Real-time Data Analytics
Services used – S3, Glue, Postgres, Power BI
Sometimes it is necessary to gain data quality insights before data is loaded into a more concrete data storage solution such as a data lake or data warehouse. We used S3 cloud storage to provide a transient landing and scheduled hourly Glue jobs to calculate some of the data quality metrics. This was then ingested into a Postgres DB and was later used to build a Power BI Dashboard.
Snowflake/S3 Usage on a Cost Sharing Dashboard
Services used – S3, Snowflake, Lambda, Athena, Power BI
The challenge was that AWS Console does not provide cost sharing between multiple users accessing different folders in the S3 bucket. We devised our own solution by enabling logs from S3, integrating Athena and creating a personalized view which was used to build a Power BI dashboard for usage and cost sharing among different user groups. We also enabled logging for Snowflake and created a procedure to calculate costs on an everyday basis. This was then plugged into Power BI to create reports.
