Business Intelligence & Advanced Analytics
It’s no secret that data is increasingly providing competitive edge to organizations that can successfully explore this data and derive meaningful insights. In a recent study published by Forbes, it was demonstrated that only 0.5% of the world’s data is ever analyzed and used. Due to the rapid infusion of Social Media, smartphones, and the Internet of Things, organizations can no longer afford to ignore this ever-increasing data deluge. SQS Data will help your organization to capture all of the raw data that flows through the various systems and to unlock the hidden value in this data by deriving meaningful insights and by visualizing these insights into an understandable at a glance format that is easily communicated to decision makers. Our continuous research allows us to recommend the optimum tools that your organization can leverage to visually represent strategic high value data not only in Batch but also in Real-Time as events occur.
We deploy Advanced Analytics for efficient and effective decision support. Contact us for more information.
Data Quality
The quality of your data is critical to a successful Information Management strategy as this data will be leveraged for strategic decision making. Low data quality can lead to inaccurate reporting and loss of trust in the data validity. SQS’s Data Quality services enables your organization to have greater trust in its data and provides your organization with the tools and methodologies to ensure ongoing means of maintaining the data and deriving insights.
Data Governance
An effective Governance strategy for your data is critical to the overall success of any Information Management initiative. As your organization grows, the volume, variety, velocity of the data grows accordingly and the veracity of the data become increasingly challenging. As data becomes more democratized in your organization, an increasing number of stakeholders will require continuous access to the systems. It is vital that a properly setup strategy, framework and system are setup to ensure the necessary policies and guidelines for data ownership, management and use are streamlined through your organization.
SQS Data’s Governance services will ensure that your organization has a well-established and streamlined Information Management framework along with the necessary policies in place to meet the requirements of all stakeholders and data security guidelines. We will help your organization in the planning and execution of the Data Governance roadmap.
Emerging Technology Corporate Training
Your organization has just implemented a new Big Data infrastructure which took several months to setup. Budgets have been approved, tools have been deployed and the implementation roadmap is on track. However, it seems that the new Big Data tools need a different skillset than what your current staff have. That’s not a surprise, as traditional Database and Datawarehouse tools operate in a very different way than Big Data platforms such as Hadoop and Apache Spark.
Should you augment your current staff with Big Data contractors or is it preferred to train your in-house employees, upgrade their skillsets and migrate them over this new initiative? SQS Data can help with both services. Our industry certified Hadoop Developers and Data Scientists have proven track records of performing training for Information Management professionals on the latest, cutting-edge Big Data tools such as Hadoop, Apache Spark, Scala, R and Tableau.

Data Science
While Advanced Analytics and BI is more of an exploratory process, Data Science takes things to the next level by overlaying statistical analysis, machine learning, and econometrics for the purpose of developing algorithms, methodologies and software for Predictive Analytics. This helps organizations not only visualize their data but to statistically analyze data for patterns, trends, correlations and outliers. The Prediction of future trends can be further enabled by integrating internal data and external data to provide a more strategic and comprehensive 360 degree perspective.
Our team of certified Data Scientists has hands-on experience working with clients in various industry verticals and have expertise with the following:
Software: Scala, Apache Spark, Python, R, Weka, Knime
Exploratory Data Analysis: Box Plot, Histograms, Scatter Plots, Support Vector Machines.
