Performance optimization
Slow dashboards and missed SLAs erode trust faster than bad charts. We profile workloads end-to-end—from Oracle CDC through Airflow to Snowflake or Databricks—and remove bottlenecks with partitioning, incremental models, and right-sized compute—not endless cluster upsizing.
Representative capabilities—scoped to your cloud, warehouse, and compliance posture.
Methodology, ownership, and runbooks your procurement and platform teams can inspect—across GCP, AWS, Azure, Snowflake, Databricks, Airflow, and legacy sources such as Oracle.
Cluster keys, micro-partitions, Z-ordering, and materialized paths are chosen from real query plans—not folklore. We align warehouse size to predictable concurrency windows and separate interactive BI from heavy batch.
On BigQuery, Redshift, and Synapse we apply slot or WLM discipline so ad-hoc analysts do not starve scheduled pipelines.
Watermark-based and CDC-driven increments shrink blast radius and recovery time. Idempotent writes prevent duplicate facts when jobs retry—critical for OLAP correctness and AI feature tables.
dbt, Spark, or SQL pipelines on Databricks get test harnesses for schema drift and late-arriving facts.
Where sub-minute latency matters, we tune Kafka/MSK, Pub/Sub, or Kinesis consumers with backpressure and dead-letter discipline. Edge aggregation reduces WAN chatter while preserving reconcilable totals at the lake.
Golden signals for pipelines: freshness, error budget burn, and queue depth. We tie SLOs to business cutoffs—close of books, campaign launches—so engineering priorities match CFO and CMO reality.
