For those wondering what Data Ware Housing is our favorite wiki obliges by informing us “A Data Warehouse is a storage area for a certain company’s information providing real time access to data and statistics.”
“This definition of the data warehouse focuses on data storage. However, the means to retrieve and analyze data, to extract, transform and load data, and to manage the data dictionary are also considered essential components of a data warehousing system. Many references to data warehousing use this broader context. Thus, an expanded definition for data warehousing includes business intelligence tools, tools to extract, transform, and load data into the repository, and tools to manage and retrieve metadata.” Informs Wikipedia.
Azhagarasan states “We deployed data warehouses for big enterprises. Not many companies have capable BI team. But we do.”
“Partners and Induction” is their pathway to growth and expansion.
Azhagarasan was motivated to begin his entrepreneurial journey by his “Passion to build products and found a niche to fill the vacuum - Data warehousing among SME.”
He will be among the first to say that a great idea takes a lot of hard work to fully materialize. They had some trouble with “Product Framework. They were third time lucky with their concepts says Azhagarasan “We experimented with 2 frameworks and failed. Third one was successful.”
He has also learnt since then that marketing can be one’s Achilles hell. He says
“Took 'sales role' as easy. But it’s not easy.”
They add employees through referrals only, and are currently fully staffed. Azhagarasan adds that he is proud that they have “retained pool of resources and first set of clients”
Kaizentric are aiming at establishing their “own space” and infrastructure while aiming for more clients.
Azhagarasan has some practical advice to give to entrepreneurs in the making and says
“Cut cost wherever possible. Don’t worry about big guys... In fact, they worry about the budding ones and realize that they do not have the expertise, the budding ones have.”
Yourstory has faith that Azhagarasan will fulfill all the dreams that he has for Kaizentric technologies, and hopes to see them go far in their journey towards excellence.
