What We Offer

Complete Data Engineering Capabilities

From batch ETL to real-time streaming β€” we build the data layer your AI and analytics teams actually need.

01
πŸ”„

ETL/ELT Pipeline Development

Reliable, idempotent data pipelines using Airflow, dbt, and Prefect β€” batch and micro-batch processing with built-in data quality checks at every stage.

02
🏒

Data Warehouse & Lakehouse Design

Modern warehouse and lakehouse architectures on Snowflake, Databricks, or BigQuery β€” optimized for both analytical queries and ML feature serving.

03
⚑

Real-Time Streaming

Event-driven architectures with Kafka, Flink, and Kinesis for use cases like fraud detection, live pricing, and real-time dashboards that demand sub-second latency.

04
πŸ§ͺ

Data Quality & Observability

Automated testing with Great Expectations, Monte Carlo, or custom validators β€” schema validation, freshness checks, anomaly detection, and alerting before bad data spreads.

05
πŸ›‘οΈ

Data Governance & Cataloging

Lineage tracking, access controls, PII detection, and automated cataloging β€” so your team can discover, trust, and audit data across the organization.

06
πŸ€–

ML Feature Engineering

Feature stores and feature pipelines that serve consistent features to both training and inference β€” bridging the gap between data engineering and machine learning.

βš™οΈ Infrastructure That Scales

Data engineering isn't plumbing. It's your AI foundation.

Every AI initiative we've seen fail had the same root cause: bad data infrastructure. We build the pipelines, warehouses, and governance that make AI initiatives succeed.

About This Service

Data Engineering Built for AI Workloads

Most data stacks weren't designed for ML. We build infrastructure that serves both analytics dashboards and production ML models with equal reliability.

βœ“
AI-Native Architecture
Pipelines designed to feed feature stores and model training β€” not just dashboards. Your data stack becomes an ML-ready platform.
βœ“
Cost-Optimized from Day One
We right-size compute, optimize storage tiers, and implement auto-scaling β€” cutting cloud bills by 40–60% on average.
βœ“
Governance Without Bottlenecks
Automated cataloging, lineage, and access controls that protect data without slowing down your data scientists.
Why OpenMalo

Why Data Teams Trust OpenMalo

We've modernized data stacks for fintech startups processing millions of daily transactions and enterprises migrating from legacy warehouses.

🏦
FinTech Data Expertise
Transaction pipelines, fraud detection streams, reconciliation jobs β€” we understand the data patterns unique to financial services.
πŸ“ˆ
Scale Without Surprises
Our pipelines handle 10Γ— traffic spikes without breaking. Auto-scaling, backpressure handling, and dead-letter queues built in from the start.
πŸ’°
Cloud Cost Optimization
Clients save 40–60% on cloud data bills. We right-size warehouses, optimize partitioning, and eliminate redundant processing.
πŸ”
Observability Built In
Every pipeline ships with monitoring, alerting, and data quality dashboards β€” not as an afterthought, but as a core deliverable.
πŸ”„
Migration Specialists
Seamless migrations from legacy systems to modern stacks β€” Hadoop to Databricks, Redshift to Snowflake, on-prem to cloud.
🀝
We Pair, Not Replace
We work alongside your existing data team, transferring knowledge and building capabilities β€” not creating vendor dependency.

Client Stories

What Our Clients Say

β€œOpenMalo migrated our entire data stack from a legacy Hadoop cluster to Databricks in 8 weeks β€” with zero data loss and 60% lower monthly costs. Their migration playbook was incredibly thorough.

PV
Priya Venkatesh
VP Data Engineering, TrustBridge Capital

β€œWe were spending $14K/month on a Snowflake warehouse that was poorly optimized. OpenMalo restructured our pipelines and cut our bill to $5.8K while actually improving query performance. Remarkable.

JH
James Hartley
Head of Analytics, PayGrid

β€œTheir real-time fraud detection pipeline processes 2 million transactions per hour with 99.9% uptime. It caught $1.2M in fraudulent transactions in the first quarter alone.

Data Stack Modernization for TrustBridge Capital

How we migrated a legacy Hadoop-based data warehouse to a modern Databricks lakehouse β€” reducing cloud costs by 60%, improving query performance by 8Γ—, and enabling real-time ML feature serving.

The Challenge

Legacy data infrastructure blocking AI adoption

TrustBridge Capital's 6-year-old Hadoop cluster couldn't support real-time analytics or ML workloads. Query times had grown to 15+ minutes, and the team spent more time maintaining infrastructure than building features.

15+ minute query times on core analytical workloads
$23K/month cloud costs with poor resource utilization
No real-time data capability for fraud detection models
Data scientists waiting 2 days for feature engineering pipelines

Our Approach: Parallel migration with dual-write pattern, automated data validation comparing old vs. new outputs, Databricks lakehouse with Delta Live Tables, and feature store integration β€” completed in 8 weeks.
