System of Insight High Level Design Case Study

System of Insight High Level Design

Client is in the process of migrating from on-premise, legacy data warehouse to a Google Cloud Platform, distributed data lake house System of Insight. This has technical as well as cultural challenges- and requires clear understanding of the components of a SoI (System of Insight), the changes to roles and responsibilities and the cultural change to move away from a centralised ‘command and control’ model to a federated, data product and data contract driven model.
