 Our vision on a modern data platform

Modern data platforms are the robust foundation to unlock the true potential of data. These platforms have 4 important tasks to do: ingesting data from different data sources, processing the collected data in a timely and correct way, storing all data in an appropriate format, and making sure that consumers can start using this data.

We build our data platform using a modular design: as technologies evolve, it must be possible to swap components within the platform. We believe that good software engineering practices lead to better data platforms, so we apply them where possible. A well-designed and pragmatic data management framework provides the foundation to effectively organise and utilise all data within the platform.
