Lessons Learned

Key takeaways from successful telecom data transformations

Networking

  • SciKIQ's cloud-agnostic deployment works across multi-cloud environments with peered routable IP VNETs
  • Restricting the Control Plane's firewall by DNS or IP address space helps limit exposure for the SciKIQ fabric layer

Architecture

  • Decoupling business units, compute, and resources allows for agility, reduced dependency, and scalability
  • The Packaged Data Workspace, with bundled business capabilities, helps in managing dependencies and onboarding

Framework & IaC

  • A framework and metadata-driven approach helps scale the solution
  • Everything as configuration or code makes the solution declarative and maintainable
  • Leveraging Level Dependency Injection and Key Association Patterns addresses team dependencies
  • Azure CAFs Framework provides a foundation to build upon
  • Terraform is the preferred tool for cloud-agnostic and highly flexible IaC

Resource & Quota Planning

  • Resource quota limits with Microsoft need to be planned for certain services
  • SciKIQ compute and connector limits should be managed in accordance with cloud provider quotas
  • Specifically, Postgres and Cosmos have been shown to require careful quota planning
