The challenge

The client’s data was spread across several systems. With no overall view and no shared documentation, every new need meant searching for, understanding and cross-referencing data by hand.

The value delivered

DEEPXP designed and built a platform that consolidates all the client’s data. It relies on open-source tools, chosen and adapted to the client’s context. A data catalogue describes every dataset and data product: origin, definition, owner.

Results

The client’s data now sits on a single platform. Data products are documented in the catalogue, so teams can find, understand and reuse them.
