Frequently Asked Questions
What are big data solutions?
Platforms for capturing, storing and analysing data at scale — warehouses, lakes, streaming and governance.
How much data do we need before big data solutions make sense?
Less than you think — complexity (sources, formats, speed) matters more than volume.
What is the difference between a data lake and a data warehouse?
Warehouses: structured, fast queries. Lakes: raw, cheap. Lakehouses combine both.
Should we process data in real time or in batches?
Streaming where latency creates value; batch where it doesn’t. We design for both.
How do big data solutions relate to AI?
Data platforms are AI’s foundation — ML needs clean, fresh training data.
Is our data secure in the cloud?
Yes — encryption, private networking, least-privilege access and audit logging.
How long does a big data platform take to build?
First slice in 8–12 weeks; full platform over 6–12 months.

How to Work With Us
What Affects the Cost
Scope and complexity
More features and complex workflows need more design, build and testing effort. A narrow pilot costs far less than a platform-wide rollout.
Data readiness
Clean, labeled and accessible data shortens timelines. Messy or siloed data adds preparation work before modeling can start.
Integrations
Each system you connect adds API work, data mapping and testing. Standard connectors are faster than custom legacy integrations.
Model approach
Off-the-shelf models and APIs cost less than fine-tuning. Full custom training is the most resource-intensive option.
Compliance needs
Regulated industries need extra review, documentation and controls. Security and audit requirements add delivery effort.
