Why BizAnalytica (a Mastek company)

  • Proven expertise in migrating from Cloudera to Snowflake.
  • Ability to create a business case to validate costs savings.
  • Experience with building a data warehouse with Snowflake on AWS.

The Challenge

Selected Mastek to deliver two key processes, the Biometric Residence Permit and the Biometric Travel Document components of the core IPT Programme infrastructure which comprised:

  • SSB (Shared Service Bus), a software component supporting communication between immigration and enforcement systems
  • CDP (Common Data Platform), a single data platform addressing various data sharing needs of the Home Office and other government departments.

The Solution

Our team took a fresh approach to develop Putnam’s overall data strategy and helped the firm decide to implement Snowflake on AWS to replace their on-premises data lake built on Cloudera’s Distribution of Hadoop platform. As part of the consulting engagement, the team worked hand-in-hand with Putnam’s data architecture team to redesign and built a data warehouse with Snowflake on AWS. The firm was able to leverage our organization’s pre-built frameworks to accelerate the migration significantly.

  • Mastek designed, built, tested and delivered the SSB and the CDP systems in line with the UK Government’s Digital Services (GDS) recommendations
  • Focused on business outcomes by adopting IPT processes into Mastek’s proven Enterprise Agile approach.

These Solutions Included

  • Creating a unified front-end that makes data workflows highly customizable and accessible for application development.
  • Rewriting queries and processes that were defined in Oracle to AWS-friendly SQL.
  • Building a secure, continuous data sync between legacy systems and the cloud.
