01 · Architecture Story
Layered Cloud Data Architecture
Organized cloud data around clear processing responsibilities: preserve source fidelity at ingestion, add operational metadata and incremental-processing controls, then expose governed consumption-ready datasets.
- Raw source-aligned landing
- Raw+ / enriched operational metadata
- Incremental and restartable processing
- Curated data products for downstream consumption

Snowflake Data & AI Platform
Combined scalable data processing with governed semantic access and AI capabilities, while treating compute sizing, query design and workload isolation as architectural concerns.
- Medallion / layered transformation patterns
- Semantic views and governed business definitions
- AI-ready access for analyst and agent experiences
- Warehouse and query-efficiency controls

Databricks & Open Lakehouse Patterns
Used lakehouse patterns where distributed processing, open formats or cross-platform access are valuable. Delta supports transactional lake processing, while Iceberg is evaluated where interoperability across engines is a primary requirement.
- Delta-based incremental lake processing
- Unity Catalog governance patterns
- Iceberg based on interoperability requirements
- Avoid format choices without a workload-driven reason

AI Analytics, Apps & Observability
Extended the platform toward natural-language analytics and lightweight data applications while maintaining visibility into workload behavior and consumption.
- Databricks Genie for governed conversational analytics
- Streamlit-style application experiences
- Operational and cost observability
- Right-sized serverless / compute usage
