A cloud-based data warehouse that connects a U.S. federal media agency’s disparate data sources for analytics, data science, and reporting
Intuceo built a governed data warehouse on Microsoft Azure that ingests data from separate
internal and third-party systems, standardizes it into use-case-specific datasets, and makes
analytics available to agency users through a self-serve data portal and a data-sharing method
that avoids copying data between systems.

Client Overview
The client is an agency of the United States federal government operating in the media sector.
Its work draws on data held across many separate systems, and it is accountable for reporting
that information to the public and Congress. Because that reporting carries statutory and
oversight weight, the data behind it has to be consistent, current, and defensible.
The Challenge
Data lived in disconnected systems, which slowed analytics, data
science, and official reporting
The agency’s data was spread across separate source systems and external third-party
services, with no common place to bring it together. Running analytics and data science against a consistent view of that information was difficult, and preparing the public and congressional
reporting the agency is required to produce meant assembling data from many places by hand.
Analysts and reporting teams needed standardized, use-case-specific data they could rely on,
along with a way to reach it directly rather than requesting one-off extracts. The agency also
needed to share data with other systems and stakeholders without creating and maintaining
duplicate copies across those systems.
The Solution
Intuceo built a governed data warehouse on Microsoft Azure that ingests, standardizes, and
serves data for analytics and reporting.
Intuceo delivered a cloud-based data warehouse on Microsoft Azure that connects the agency’s
disparate sources into a single governed environment. The engagement covered the full path
from ingestion through processing to consumption
Technology
The solution runs on Microsoft Azure across a load, transform,
and delivery data flow
All components run on Microsoft Azure
Outcomes
What the agency now has in place after the engagement
- One governed data warehouse that connects previously disconnected internal and third-party sources on Microsoft Azure.
- Standardized, use-case-specific datasets that analytics and data science teams can work from directly.
- A reliable data supply for public and congressional reporting, drawn from a single governed source.
- A self-serve data portal that lets agency users consume analytics without manual extracts.
- Data sharing through the Delta Sharing protocol, with no duplication or movement of data between systems.
