Client Overview
An education technology provider serving thousands of schools across the U.S. set out to modernize how administrators, principals, and district leaders’ access and act on data.
Fragmented systems and outdated infrastructure were slowing decision-making, so the organization needed a cloud-native platform that could integrate complex datasets and deliver actionable insights at scale.
Challenges
Fragmented systems across school districts created gaps in data structure, access control, and reporting consistency needed for timely decision-making.
Legacy System Limitations
The older system had an outdated stack and huge technical debt. It took minutes and sometimes hours to process all this data.
Fragmented Data Architecture
Over 50 disconnected systems across schools led to inconsistent data structure, broken workflows, and limited access to critical metrics at the district level.
Static Reporting Framework
The platform lacked flexible querying and custom views, preventing stakeholders from exploring real-time data or acting on emerging academic trends.
Solution
We architected a scalable education analytics platform built for real-time actionability with clean pipelines, automated delivery, and secure role-based access.
Modular Cloud Architecture
Rebuilt the legacy system with a modular, cloud-native architecture and centralized warehouse to enable fast, secure, and scalable data processing across distributed school systems.
Real-Time Data Pipelines
Implemented a real-time ETL pipeline to ingest and standardize data from 50+ tools, powering dashboards, automated alerts, and dynamic reports for district-wide visibility.
CI/CD Deployment Framework
Built a DevOps-led CI/CD pipeline with integrated testing, automated deployment, and rollback safeguards to ensure rapid delivery without risking uptime or platform integrity.
Unified Data Access layer
Established a secure access layer that governed user roles and data visibility, providing consistent, policy-driven access to district data without compromising privacy or compliance.
Business Impact
The solution improved reporting speed, reduced tech overhead, and gave district leaders the visibility they needed to make timely, data-informed decisions.
Faster Data Processing
Rebuilt architecture reduced data load and reporting times from hours to minutes, making key insights accessible to educators and administrators.
Lower Infrastructure Costs
Modular design and cloud-native deployment cut infrastructure costs by 70%, reducing system overhead and improving operational efficiency.
Secure System Access
Implemented robust privacy controls and access governance, ensuring secure, scalable system use across thousands of schools and user roles.
