Azure and Databricks consulting for the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and wider MENA

Azure data platforms and Microsoft Fabric, designed for the region

End-to-end Azure data platforms with ADLS Gen2, Data Factory, Synapse and Microsoft Fabric, deployed in-region where required.

Overview

We design and build Azure data platforms that bring ERP, CRM, operational and streaming data into one governed foundation. Where regulation or policy requires it, storage and compute are kept in Azure regions inside the UAE.

Sound familiar?

  • Data is scattered across ERP, CRM, spreadsheets and departmental databases
  • The on-premises warehouse has reached its limits for volume and speed
  • It is unclear whether Microsoft Fabric, Databricks or both is the right choice
  • Personal or sensitive data needs to stay inside the country

What we deliver

Platform selection

An evidence-based recommendation on Fabric, Databricks, Synapse or a hybrid, tied to your workloads, skills and licensing.

Target architecture

Landing zone, ADLS Gen2 layout, environments, networking and a roadmap you can budget against.

Ingestion pipelines

Metadata-driven Azure Data Factory and Fabric pipelines for batch and incremental loads from enterprise sources.

Security by design

Private endpoints, Entra ID, managed identities, Key Vault and least-privilege access across the platform.

In-region deployment

Designs that keep data in Azure UAE North (Dubai) or UAE Central (Abu Dhabi) when data residency applies.

DevOps and automation

Infrastructure as code, deployment pipelines and monitoring so the platform is repeatable, not hand-built.

Common questions

Anything else? Ask us directly.

It depends on your workloads, team skills and existing licences. Fabric suits Power BI-centric organisations wanting a single SaaS experience; Databricks suits heavy engineering, streaming and machine learning. Many enterprises use both, with Databricks for engineering and Fabric for consumption.

We assess the in-kingdom hosting options available at the time of the engagement against your data classification and regulatory obligations, and design the architecture accordingly.
