Data Architecture

We design architecture decisions that stay coherent as organizations scale. As a Google Cloud and dbt partner, we align platform structure, governance, and delivery priorities.

Why it matters

Growth exposes weak architecture quickly. We define a durable target state for delivery speed and governance consistency.

Strategy Alignment

We translate strategic priorities into concrete architecture principles, domain boundaries, and implementation sequencing that teams can execute.

Governance by Design

Access control, data lineage, quality, and stewardship designed into the architecture from the start. Not added later when things break.

Scalable Trade-Offs

We document trade-offs and standardize critical components so your platform evolves without repeated redesign cycles.

Explore our solutions

We prioritize architecture challenges where governance, interoperability, and scale affect execution.

Platform Patterns

Select and evolve the right warehouse, lake, or lakehouse patterns by workload needs, reliability goals, and operating model maturity.

Processing Design

Design batch and streaming capabilities that balance latency, control, and cost for the decisions that matter most.

Semantic Foundations

Establish domain ownership and shared semantic standards so reporting, operations, and AI initiatives rely on consistent trusted logic.

Governance Operating Model

Define stewardship, access policies, and architecture governance routines so standards remain practical as adoption grows.

Solutions in practice

Luxury & Manufacturing

Building a cloud-native Data Architecture for enterprise scale

A global luxury group was migrating from an on-premise data warehouse to GCP, facing SAP data complexity, internal skill gaps, and low business engagement. Astrafy designed and built a modular data architecture on BigQuery and dbt, establishing data modeling standards, CI/CD practices, and governance principles from day one, delivering a scalable, AI-ready foundation for the business.

Our process

How we deliver

We run architecture as a practical decision program aligning scale, governance, and execution.

Frame Strategy

Clarify priorities, constraints, and target outcomes.

Design Target

Define target state, trade-offs, and priorities.

Set Standards

Establish governance patterns, ownership, and reference rules.

Govern Evolution

Run periodic reviews as needs evolve.
