Data Platform Build
Build data platforms that are reliable, scalable and ready for growth
We design and build cloud data platforms that enable analytics, reporting and AI at scale. Our Data Platform Build services focus on creating strong foundations that support current needs while remaining flexible as your organisation evolves.
Why Data Platform Build Matters
Many organisations invest heavily in data platforms but struggle to realise their full value. Common challenges include:
• Platforms that are slow to deliver or difficult to extend
• Inconsistent data pipelines and models that undermine trust
• Overly complex designs that are expensive to build and operate
• Security, governance and resilience addressed too late
• Platforms that work technically but fail to support real use cases
Without a clear, well-executed platform build, data initiatives can become fragile, costly and hard to scale.
How This Service Contributes to Your Outcomes
Our Data Platform Build services support the following outcomes:
Each outcome links to a deeper explanation of how we bind services and products across the Cloud Shift Toolkit to deliver value.
How We Deliver Data Platform Build
We take a pragmatic, delivery-focused approach that balances speed with robustness.
Our work typically includes:
Understanding requirements and delivery context
We work with stakeholders to understand business goals, technical constraints and delivery priorities before building begins.
Designing fit-for-purpose platform architectures
We design data platform architectures aligned to your use cases, operating model and long-term roadmap.
Building and configuring core platform foundations
We implement core platform components using proven patterns to ensure reliability, security and scalability.
Implementing data ingestion, transformation and modelling
We build ingestion pipelines and data models that support analytics, reporting and downstream use cases.
Testing, optimising and preparing for production
We validate performance, security and reliability to ensure the platform is ready for real-world use.
Where appropriate, delivery is accelerated through proven frameworks and tooling, but the service remains effective as a standalone build engagement.
Ways to Get Started
There are several ways to begin, depending on your platform maturity and delivery goals:
Each option provides a structured starting point and a clear route into deeper engagement if required.
With Proven Results
We have delivered data platforms for organisations across sectors, supporting analytics, reporting and AI at scale.
