Apoyo Económico accelerates its risk analytics processes on Google Cloud

Apoyo Económico, a microloan company with more than 170 branches, ran critical analytical processes every month on large volumes of information in an on-premise relational database limited by licenses and disk. Amarello migrated and re-engineered those processes to BigQuery: the risk portfolio went from several days to a couple of hours, and analysts have a new universe of information.

In short

Apoyo Económico is a financial sector company that provides microloans, with more than 170 branches nationwide. It needed to migrate relational databases based on licensing and optimize on-premise analytical processes to Google Cloud. The main advantages of adopting a cloud model were the reduction in licensing costs and very significant improvements in information processing time.

01 · The problem

Risk processes that took days on a licensed database

  1. 01

    Critical monthly processes

    Critical analytical processes that use large volumes of information run every month. Their function is to deliver, in the shortest possible time, the analysis the business requires.

  2. 02

    The risk portfolio

    The central requirement was to migrate the analytical process that produces the risk portfolio, which processes a large volume of historical information.

  3. 03

    Limited by licenses and disk

    Most of the process ran on an on-premise relational database, limited to licensed CPUs and hard disk space. Risk analysts needed the flexibility to run additional analyses on the entire available volume.

02 · How we solved it

Re-engineering to BigQuery as the enterprise data warehouse

  1. 1

    Migration and re-engineering

    Our team of Google Cloud certified data engineers migrated and re-engineered the analytical processes to BigQuery as the enterprise data warehouse, to cut processing time from several days to a couple of hours and give analysts a new universe of available information.

  2. 2

    Real-time dashboards

    BigQuery was connected to Data Studio and Google Sheets to generate dashboards efficiently and with real-time data, which made it much easier to deliver reports to the different business areas in a controlled and secure way.

03 · The benefit for the client
