The Problem

The client had earlier tried multiple reporting tools like Zoho Reports, Tableau and PowerBI to create reports and dashboards. But these initiatives did not yield the expected results as it did not have an integrated workflow and data pipeline. Data was in silos and this presented a significant challenge to the team at QUEST. The client required the following:

  • A well structured analytics system capable of handling large volumes of data.
  • Client preferred moving to an open source solution since they were a not for profit organisation.
  • A future proof architecture that can accommodate the changes to existing applications and new applications.
  • Develop the analytics platform to support multi company architecture in line with the client’s organisation structure.

Implementation & Results

    Implementation was done in the following four phases
    • Implemented the solution using Talend as ETL, MySQL as Data warehouse and Superset as the BI layer.
    • Integration of multiple data sources to the ETL layer.
    • Custom business logic for data processing was integrated into the ETL layer.
    • Creating reports and dashboards using Apache Superset.
    • Testing & QA.
