Big Data Analytics Platform
Unlock Insights from Massive Datasets
Build analytics platforms that make petabyte-scale data accessible for business intelligence, data science, and operational reporting. Interactive queries, rich visualizations, and machine learning integration deliver actionable insights.
What is a Big Data Analytics Platform?
Analytics at enterprise scale
A big data analytics platform provides the tools and infrastructure to analyze massive datasets that exceed the capabilities of traditional business intelligence tools. These platforms handle terabytes to petabytes of data while delivering interactive query performance.
Modern analytics platforms serve multiple user personas: business analysts who build dashboards and reports, data scientists who perform advanced analysis and modeling, and executives who need key metrics at a glance. The platform must balance ease of use for non-technical users with power and flexibility for advanced users.
Our analytics platforms combine high-performance query engines (Presto, Spark SQL) that make big data interactive, visualization tools (Tableau, Looker, Superset) that communicate insights, and semantic layers that present technical data in business terms.

Why Choose DevSimplex for Big Data Analytics?
Analytics that drive decisions
We have built over 55 big data analytics platforms analyzing more than 300TB of data across industries. Our platforms power decision-making for organizations ranging from fast-growing startups to Fortune 500 enterprises.
Analytics platforms succeed when they get used. We focus on user experience-ensuring that analysts can find data, run queries, and build dashboards without constant engineering support. Self-service analytics multiplies the value of your data investment.
Performance is critical for adoption. Users abandon slow tools. Our platforms deliver sub-5-second query responses on terabyte-scale datasets through smart architecture, optimized data layouts, and appropriate caching strategies. We prove performance before go-live through benchmarking with real workloads.

Frequently Asked Questions
What BI tools do you work with?
We work with all major BI tools including Tableau, Power BI, Looker, Superset, and Metabase. We help you select the right tool based on your requirements, existing investments, and user preferences.
How do you ensure query performance on big data?
Through multiple strategies: optimized data layouts (partitioning, bucketing), materialized views for common queries, intelligent caching, and query engine tuning. We benchmark with your actual workloads to prove performance.
Can non-technical users build their own dashboards?
Yes, self-service analytics is a key goal. We build semantic layers that present data in business terms, create templates for common analyses, and provide training so business users can explore data independently.
How do you integrate machine learning?
We integrate ML models as features in the analytics layer. This enables predictions, recommendations, and anomaly detection to appear directly in dashboards. Models can run at query time or be pre-computed depending on latency requirements.
What about data governance and security?
We implement row and column level security, role-based access controls, and audit logging. Users see only data they are authorized to access, and all access is logged for compliance.
