WHAT WE DO

The expertise your data platform actually needs.

Turn AI into Results

Move AI from experimentation into solutions that deliver measurable business value.

We help you identify where AI can make a real difference, then build the solutions to prove it. From GenAI and intelligent agents to machine learning and conversational analytics, we turn promising use cases into production-ready solutions on Databricks that teams can actually use.
Explore the solution

Senior Databricks experts embedded in your team from day one.

Your platform exists. The expertise to run it at full capacity doesn't have to be hired full-time. We embed senior engineers, architects, and strategists directly into your team, not as external advisors, but as delivery owners who contribute from the first week.

Build & Migrate

A Databricks platform built for where your business is going, not where your technology has been.

Whether you’re starting from scratch or moving from legacy systems, we design, build, and migrate your data platform on Databricks. From architecture and governance to complex migrations and production rollout, our engineers take ownership of the journey and leave you with a platform built to scale.

Train your team

Give your teams the Databricks skills they need to deliver independently.

We train data engineers, analysts, scientists, and business teams using practical, hands-on programmes built around real Databricks environments and real-world challenges. From structured learning paths to tailored enterprise enablement, we help your people build skills they can apply immediately and keep long after the training ends.

About the project

The challenge: A local machine learning model had to be made into a scalable solution as part of a transformation pipeline. Previous solutions did not meet expectations.

‍

Datapao lifted the wind power prediction system by transforming the single-core system to a scalable distributed solution and putting it into production at wind farms in Norway.

Datapao has been an invaluable partner, bringing motivation and expertise to elevate our data platform at TechnoAlpin. By establishing Data Governance as the foundation for Data Democracy, they’ve enabled us to harness real-time data to optimize snowmaking for our customers. Thanks to Datapao’s passion - and their willingness to flexible working hours - we’re reaching new heights together!
Martin Wieser
Team Leader Cloud Applications
We worked with Datapao because they are not only expert consultants but excellent educators looking to build an organisation’s capacities. Their Geospatial Analytics with Databricks course is one of the highest quality, surpassing many university courses, but is filled with a host of practical “recipes” and real-world applications. They quickly make both the geospatial work and ways of working in the cloud seamless and clear across experience levels.
Jeremiah Nieves
CTO
Datapao was extremely open to joint experimentation, which was instrumental in being able to implement the whole approach quickly.

About the project

The goal was to develop personalized treatment plans for people suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, a life-long disease whose multiple forms require varying treatments. Previously, running models to select better treatments used to take several months on legacy systems.

Datapao led the implementation of the Azure platform and necessary applications. The new data architecture dramatically accelerated modeling and documentation. Faster and more accurate insights bring better treatments for patients.

‍

With their flexibility, expertise, and understanding of Databricks, Datapao is a great asset, helping to enrich and nurture the engagement between our energy company and Databricks.
Paul Den Dekker
Global Representative at Databricks
About the project

There is a constant and growing need for subject matter technology experts to leverage the full capability of Databricks and be able to derive insights from massive amounts of data from IoT and other sources.

Participating with our data engineers in the Center of Excellence we built applications and enabled experts at one of the largest energy companies in the world, using AI workloads to optimize assets and reduce carbon footprints.

Datapao have been a great partner from the beginning until the end. Throughout the whole project, the collaboration flowed easily, with quick turnarounds, and focus on high quality deliverables. They not only supported us assessing the value and complexity of the migration, but also ensured we were able to deliver on time.
