The project story

  1. Challenge

    Compra Agora is a B2B e-commerce platform that serves independent retail.

    At the start of the project, we identified improvements needed across its technology landscape, from how data was consumed to the security and data delivery layers.

  2. Approach

    Moving to Azure created a scalable, resilient foundation, with near-zero downtime and failover protection for the main cloud services.

    On top of it, we built a reference architecture based on Data Lakehouse, with self-service BI and data governance.

  3. Result

    The critical pipeline became 8x faster, from 4 hours to 30 minutes, and operating costs dropped 80% with the optimization of logistics processes.

    Business areas get insights faster, and 100% of the company was impacted by the Power BI dashboards.
