IRiS: The Secret to a Successful Lakehouse

You’ve invested in a powerful modern data platform. You’ve embraced the Lakehouse. So why are your AI and analytics projects still moving so slowly?

You’re not alone. Many organizations invest heavily in top-tier platforms like Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, or Databricks, only to hit a hidden bottleneck: data integration.

The promise of the Lakehouse is agility, but the reality is that integrating data from dozens of complex source systems is still a slow, manual, and error-prone process. Your team is spending months writing brittle, custom code, and every change in the business requires costly and time-consuming re-engineering.

Your platform isn’t the problem. The problem is a critical capability gap that’s holding your investment back.

The Hidden Gap Costing You Time and Money

The major cloud platforms are fantastic, but they weren’t designed to automate the complex data integration patterns required for a truly agile enterprise data platform. The industry-standard Medallion Architecture (Bronze-Silver-Gold) is only as strong as its weakest link—and for most, that’s the Silver integration layer.

Trying to build this critical layer with outdated, rigid techniques like dimensional modeling is like putting bicycle wheels on a Formula 1 car. It simply can’t keep up.

This is the gap where Lakehouse projects fail. It’s where budgets are burned, deadlines are missed, and the promised ROI of your platform investment evaporates.

IRiS: The Missing Piece for a Flawless Lakehouse

IRiS by Ignition is the secret to bridging this gap.

IRiS is not another platform to manage. It is a lightweight, powerful Data Vault automation tool designed to do one thing exceptionally well: automate the complex data integration layer of your Lakehouse.

By seamlessly extending the capabilities of your existing Microsoft, Snowflake, or Databricks platform, IRiS transforms your data integration process from a manual craft into a high-speed, automated factory.

Don’t Just Build a Lakehouse. Build it Right.

With IRiS, you can stop the integration bottleneck and unlock the true potential of your data platform. Here’s how:

Slash development costs by 70%: A proven case study showed a 70% cost reduction compared to manual development. Stop wasting budget on repetitive, low-value coding.
Accelerate time-to-insight from months to days: IRiS automates 95% of the production code for your integration layer. What used to take your team months can now be done in a fraction of the time.
Eliminate costly errors: Manual coding is riddled with errors that corrupt data and erode business trust. IRiS uses proven, repeatable patterns to generate flawless, standardized code every time.
Build an agile, future-proof platform: Built on the flexible Data Vault 2.1 methodology, your data platform can finally adapt to business changes without constant, painful re-engineering.
