Data management services

First, look for a vendor-agnostic data management company that is also platform-agnostic for AI, allowing them to integrate Databricks, Snowflake, Microsoft Fabric, and leading vector stores without bias. This ensures that your data management solutions are tailored to your company’s needs and future AI plans, rather than meeting vendor quotas.

Second, evaluate the breadth and depth of a company’s data management services. This includes integration/ETL, migration, enterprise storage (warehouses/lakes/lakehouses), governance, quality, security, analytics, disaster recovery, and architecture optimization—along with an explicit “last mile” into AI (observability, lineage, embedding refresh, and drift control).

Finally, prioritize teams with proven outcomes and domain experience (track record across industries, measurable error/revenue/efficiency impact), as well as a delivery approach that makes data governed, observable, and compliant by default for BI, Gen AI, RAG, copilots, and agentic systems.

There are several steps that your company can take to extract actionable intelligence from its corporate data:

• Create a single source of truth based on a modern warehouse/lakehouse solution, fed by standardized ingestion and transformation—so your BI system operates on trusted, current data, and AI can reuse the same governed context
• To protect KPI integrity, implement a continuous data quality management program (accuracy, completeness, uniqueness, and consistency) that includes monitoring and remediation
• Implement master and metadata management (standards, lineage, access) so analysts can find, understand, and reuse data quickly—and to ensure precise AI retrieval
• Enforce data governance (roles, policies, privacy/security controls) and RBAC to ensure that BI and AI outputs are auditable and compliant
• Optimize data architecture for performance/cost and add observability (lineage, freshness SLAs), allowing timely dashboards and reducing drift in downstream AI

If your in-house data team can’t handle all these tasks, you can partner with an experienced data management company to fill the gap.

A comprehensive offering includes not only data governance, data quality management, master metadata management, and data security services, but also the operational stack. This encompasses data integration (ETL/ELT/streaming), migration (on-premises to cloud), enterprise data management and storage (warehouses/lakes/lakehouses), data architecture optimization, analytics, and disaster recovery.

To ensure that enterprise data consistently powers BI, Gen AI, RAG, copilots, and agentic systems, top providers also offer an AI handoff, which includes vector pipelines, lineage/observability, and controls for embeddings, evaluations, and drift.

Data management solutions consist of tooling and execution layers (pipelines, storage, models, and dashboards). Data governance services define the rules—ownership, policies, lineage, access, privacy, and compliance—that ensure enterprise solutions, including AI systems, are reliable, auditable, and safe.

A typical model includes data integration, data storage/architecture, data governance and quality, as well as data analytics and consumption. Together, these pillars form an enterprise data management framework that provides enterprise software with governed, relevant, long-lasting, and secure context. Effective data management is especially important in the age of AI, as artificial intelligence models are only as good as the data they ingest and learn on.

Enterprise data management enables clean schemas, lineage, observability, and real-time pipelines. That means more recent embeddings, fewer duplicates, higher retrieval precision, and safer model updates—so Gen AI assistants, RAG apps, and agents can respond accurately with governed data.
