Arlington View: A Modern Revolution in Local Government Enterprise Analytics with SplashBI’s Data Pipeline

Recent exciting technology and process improvements have made world class enterprise analytics more affordable and accessible than ever before. Despite this, the cloud-native, composable, ELT-focused approach of the “modern data stack” remains most associated with Silicon Valley startups, not hundred-year-old Virginia local governments. But this situation is changing in Arlington County.

In this presentation, I will walk through the process of creating Arlington View, the County’s innovative modern data platform. I will discuss the modular components of the platform, including the critical role SplashBI’s Data Pipeline tool plays by syncing thousands of rows of data hourly from our Oracle Fusion ERP into our cloud data warehouse. I will also describe some of our biggest wins with the platform so far, from saving more than $100,000 annually retiring other analytical tools, to simplifying and rationalizing the County’s enterprise data management by deprecating  unmonitored legacy data pipelines, to providing analysts across the organization with unprecedented access to their data in a format that is ready for work and always up to date.
