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.
