Sirius One:

Enterprise Azure Data Warehouse Modernization

Cloud-native multi-region DWH platform replacing manual Excel-based reporting with automated, scalable analytics infrastructure.

Client & Project Overview

A healthcare-focused international organization operating across the UAE and EU relied on a workflow of exporting hundreds of CSV files, manually consolidating them in Excel, and ingesting them into a monolithic Power BI model. SiriusOne was approached to replace these manual pipelines with a scalable, secure Azure-based Data Warehouse, establishing a single source of truth across regions and enabling daily refresh cycles instead of monthly.

Business Problem

The existing reporting ecosystem had reached its architectural ceiling, presenting significant structural risks and performance bottlenecks. Key challenges included:

  • Manual consolidation of ~800 CSV files introducing human error
  • Over-engineered Power BI models with 30+ chained transformation steps
  • Scalability limits (InteractionLogs dataset exceeding Excel’s 1M row limit)
  • Slow report refresh cycles and poor query performance (heavy DAX)
  • Fragmented data governance across UAE and EU regions
  • High operational risk due to lack of automation and auditability

Tech Stack

Azure Data Factory – automated ingestion pipelines

Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS) – raw & curated layers

Azure SQL Database / Synapse Serverless – analytical workloads

Azure Synapse Analytics (scalable path)

Azure Key Vault – security & credential management

Power BI – optimized reporting layer
