Overall responsibility for Pohjolan Voima's data platform
A centralized and cost-efficient data platform brings important benefits to the energy sector business. Pohjolan Voima (PVO), responsible for approximately a fifth of Finland's energy production, e.g. for industrial needs, trusts WiseDigi's know-how and experience in the data platform maintenance and development. The co-operation with WiseDigi started in 2022 and has led to more agile and data-driven decision-making, which reflects positively in PVO's business.
PVO's data platform and data warehouse have been developed for more than a decade - the first projects were the rolling financial forecasting system and comprehensive improvement of financial reporting. Over the years, the utilization of the environment and technology and use of various tools has been maximized, by centralizing the integration interfaces between PVO's information systems, for instance.
PVO and WiseDigi constantly improve the cost-efficiency of the data platform, e.g., by enhancing processes and optimizing the utilization of selected tools. Business needs evolve rapidly, and platform development requires constant proactivity. The added value in development work is provided by a centralized data warehouse, which also ensures the storage and availability of historical data.
WiseDigi uses Power BI for reporting, WhereScape for data warehouse modelling and automation, Microsoft Azure for data integrations and data lake implementations, and Snowflake as a cloud-based data warehouse. DevOps is used for task management and Data Vault 2.0 for data warehouse modelling method.
