A secured data platform in your own cloud on AWS or Microsoft Fabric, with access rules taken from your governance model and one of your sources flowing. Typically within one to two weeks.
Problem
Your governance model says who may see what, where each tier may live and how long it is kept. Until the platform enforces it, those rules live in a document and a lot of goodwill. The Data Landing Zone is a governed lakehouse inside your existing cloud, with those rules actually switched on.
Approach
Typically one to two weeks from kick-off to handover, with one of your sources flowing end to end. That is possible because the building blocks are already written and tested, and the access rules come straight from your classification. Everything lands in your own cloud and your own code repository.
S3 with Apache Iceberg tables, Glue catalog, Lake Formation tag-based access, and Athena or Redshift Serverless for query. Sits next to Bedrock when AI follows.
OneLake with Delta tables, Fabric workspaces and capacity, and Purview for catalog and sensitivity labels. Sits next to AI Foundry when AI follows.
Dev and prod isolated from general workloads. Raw, curated and product zones in open table formats.
Catalog and tag-based access policy generated from your scheme, with column and row filters for personal data, federated to your identity provider.
Private connectivity to sources with no public endpoints on the data plane. Customer-managed keys, EU region pinning and retention rules per tier.
Tagging per domain, budgets and anomaly alerts. Query and access audit logging with retention configured.
What It Costs
The engagement ends with a qualified next step: design document and as-built, access policy test evidence mapped to your governance model, an operations runbook, a two-hour handover, and the top three data products from your register, each with a source list and an indicative pipeline scope.

Every Control Has a Reason
Each control points back to the clause in your governance model that required it. When an auditor asks why a policy exists, the answer is already written down.
Drives tags, labels, masking and encryption.
Drives tag-based access and row and column security.
Drive region pinning, lifecycle rules and snapshot expiry.
Drive the quality gates on curated and product zones.
