Building an Enterprise-Level Agnostic Data Management Platform
Solution
Quantiphi built a data platform which serves as an agnostic data management and data sharing environment that can be instantiated at will to solve various data sharing needs within the enterprise. The team utilized Google's BigQuery to help the state department personnel access data residing with other departments.
To demonstrate how to access data from other departments via the platform, an application on Google App Engine was built, allowing users to dynamically upload a schema, ingest data files, and get retrieval tokens. The platform, thus, can handle sensitive information through encryption and decryption.
Result
- Ease of access to data between different departments and agencies in the region
- Transparent view of all the datasets present
- Enable users to access information securely
