The Challenge

A client required an end-to-end data processing and reporting solution to efficiently extract, transform, and analyse business data. The existing system faced:


  • Inefficient data processing – Large datasets required structured, scalable pipelines for transformation.

  • Limited data tracking – No system in place for incremental data changes and refresh cycles.

  • Manual reporting bottlenecks – Reporting processes lacked automation and integration with analytics platforms.

 

The Solution

Wiz Digital Services implemented Microsoft Fabric for seamless data integration, transformation, and reporting, ensuring real-time insights and enhanced reporting workflows.


Key Actions:

  • Organised data using Medallion Architecture, structuring datasets into bronze, silver, and gold layers for improved data governance.

  • Built incremental ETL pipelines to track key data changes and automate refresh cycles.

  • Deployed a custom API to extract curated gold-layer data and integrate it into Power BI.

  • Set up an automated email notification system to alert teams in case of pipeline failures.

  • Implemented vacuuming processes to remove unused and untracked files, optimising storage efficiency.

  • Published reports to Microsoft Fabric Workspaces, allowing end-users to access real-time analytics.

 

The Results

By modernizing data extraction, transformation, and reporting workflows, the client successfully:

  • Structured and optimised data – Using Medallion Architecture, data was organized for efficiency and accessibility.

  • Automated incremental data processing – Regular refresh cycles ensured up-to-date reports with minimal manual intervention.

  • Enabled real-time business insights – Power BI dashboards provided interactive visualizations for data-driven decision-making.

  • Improved storage efficiency – Vacuuming processes removed redundant files, maintaining optimal database performance.


Technical Stack

  • Microsoft Fabric – Data integration and analytics platform for managing ETL workflows.

  • SQL Server – Source database for client data extraction and transformation.
