DATA WAREHOUSING (DW) SOLUTIONS:
Luminent's approach to Data Warehousing is entirely based on your Business Intelligence or Business Performance Management solution. This means that our approach, recommendations and solutions are tailored to your organisation and the issues, challenges and opportunities that you face.
A Business Intelligence or Performance Management solution is only as good as that data that it presents. This means that having rigid, trustworthy and timely data is critical to a successful BI or BPM project.
What Luminent offers is an independent, experienced and outcome based approach to Data Management, we can assist identifying Data Quality and Integration requirements and transform this into a solid Data Storage solution.
The advantages of Business Intelligence and Performance Management is that they usually bring together data from multiple sources to enable analysis that is deeper and richer that a single source. This intelligence requires a strategic approach to Data Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) to ensure that the data is captured at the correct time, with the required attributes and to the level of detail needed.
Performance Management solutions can also be a valuable source of new data (Budget, Forecast and Planning). It is critical that you have a structured approach to Actual vs Budget (Forecast or Plan) reporting and analysis to ensure that a single trusted solution is delivered and deployed.
We have delivered numerous BI and BPM solutions, most, not all, have been built with a Data Warehouse underpinning them. The delivery of a full scale Data Warehouse is not essential to delivering a successful BI or BPM project. Each organisation has different needs and different back-end data sources.
