Data Warehousing Pilot Programs
Pilot programs and proof of concept
Pilot programs traditionally soak up a lot of time to get started owing to hardware constraints, software installation and equipment configuration, and the added cost of acquiring suitable equipment and personnel for this initial phase.
When you engage DWSA to build your pilot application, we bring everything we need to do the job including hardware, fully configured software, network compatibility with your network and the will to succeed.
Our machines are typically UNIX based, 4-8 processor machines with state of the art technology, however we can also supply INTEL based processors as well.
All our machinery runs on low power requirements. We open a channel to our file systems where your internal staff can pipe data from your existing systems and then use DWSA Rapid Warehouse Solution Software to do initial loads and analyses of your data at your desktop.
What happens after the pilot?
With DWSA pilot data warehousing projects, we are offering organisations everything they need to deploy their pilot applications and the potential to continue to full production. DWSA has several options for you to choose from.
- A fully managed service with 24⁄7 support on the final product, including hardware, software and training.
- Migrate to the platform of your choice in house, with 24⁄7 support and training for your staff and a helpdesk available for problems.
- Purchase the machinery we used for the pilot at a discount price and manage it yourself.
