Data management solutions
Data management solutions enable you to get maximum value from your data by giving you a clear view of each asset.
Why is data management important?
Data management is the processes that organisations use to effectively store and get the most out of their data.
We understand that data is one of your most valuable assets, holding insights that can drive informed decision-making, improve operational efficiency, and enhance user’s experiences. If data isn’t managed effectively, it becomes disorganised and unsecure.
The main factors of data management
Data integration
combine your data from disparate sources into a unified view, allowing for seamless access and analysis
Data quality
ensure your data is at a high quality to determine the impact of your outcomes. Having a high quality of data refers to its accuracy, completeness, consistency, and reliability, with poor data quality leading to costly errors and misinformed decisions
Data governance
the governance of your organisation’s data is vitally important to ensuring you remain compliant with data laws and protocols
Master data management (MDM
the management of critical data assets, like customer information, product data, and financial records, MDM eliminates redundancies and improve data consistency by establishing a single, authoritative sources of truth
Cloud data management solutions
Cloud data management solutions remove data silos, simplify your operations, and ensure you’re maximising your data’s value, all from a singular point of view. If you’re organisation is currently utilising a cloud or hybrid cloud environment, cloud data management is an attractive solution and offers the following benefits:
- Limitless scalability: as your organisation’s needs change, so can your cloud data management solution
- Reduced operational costs: by moving your data into a cloud environment, you’ll remove the costs typically associated with an on-premises system
- Improved agility: as cloud data management solutions typically manage and automate aspects of your data, you’ll free up time to focus on more strategic goals
Adopting a cloud data management solution will also enable you to focus on optimising the quality of your data, rather than managing your infrastructure.
Cloud data management with Microsoft Azure
Microsoft Azure offers a wide range of services and tools that enable organisations to leverage the benefits of cloud computing for effective data collection and processing. Within the Azure ecosystem, there are different components specifically designed for storing data, such as databases and data warehouses, as well as tools for processing data, like virtual machines. This setup enables organisations to create well-designed, reliable, and flexible data management solutions.
On-premises data management solutions
While cloud data management solutions offer a host of benefits, storing your data on-premises may be a better solution for you. An on-premises data system involves deploying and managing a data infrastructure within your organisation’s own data centre and allows for custom configurations, strict security measures, and compliance with internal policies.
Ensure you’re getting the best outcomes from your data and providing a quality user experience for your employees, by adopting powerful and reliable hardware and software systems to replace any out-dated infrastructure.
Case study
The Francis Crick Institute
The Francis Crick Institute was looking for a modern management platform to improve the accessibility of reports and data across the whole organisation. Discover how they implemented Power Platform and Power Apps to enhance how they communicate and share data between departments.
Ensuring secure data management
Integrating security measures such as data protection, data backup, and disaster recovery are vitally important steps in building your data management strategy. As the threat of cyber attacks constantly evolves, in addition to the possibility of human errors, outages, and natural disasters, having protection and backup strategies in place will maintain the quality of your data, as well as keeping you in line with data protection laws.
