The business outcome

Move from disconnected extracts to dependable information

Integration is more than moving data. The result should be traceable, secure and designed around the decisions your teams need to make.

One reporting view Combine operational, asset, project and financial information across systems.
Less manual handling Replace recurring spreadsheet exports and fragile copy-and-paste processes.
Trusted definitions Apply documented transformations, reconciliation rules and consistent measures.
Practical refresh cycles Design refresh frequency around source availability, API limits and business needs.

Platform experience

Examples of systems we can bring into your analytics environment

These examples show the breadth of source data we have worked with. Each engagement begins by confirming your licensed access, available interfaces, security requirements and reporting priorities.

365 Innovator is an independent consultancy. Product names and trademarks belong to their respective owners. Experience with these data sources does not imply a vendor partnership or endorsement.

Beyond named platforms

Work with the interface your source system supports

We can assess unfamiliar or proprietary sources as well as established products. The right pattern depends on how the system exposes data, the volume and history required, and the controls your organisation needs.

APIs and SaaS platforms

Secure extraction from supported REST APIs and authenticated cloud services, with pagination, rate limits and incremental loading designed into the solution.

SQL and Oracle databases

Read from approved tables, views and reporting layers in SQL Server, Oracle and other relational databases without disrupting transactional workloads.

SFTP and managed files

Automate controlled ingestion of CSV, Excel, JSON, XML and other agreed file formats delivered through SFTP or secure storage.

Microsoft analytics platforms

Land, transform and model integrated data using Microsoft Fabric, Power BI and Azure services so business users receive consistent, useful reporting.

Common questions

Analytics integration FAQs

Can you connect a source that is not listed here?

Often, yes. We first assess the available API, database, reporting layer or file export and confirm whether it can meet your security, history and refresh requirements.

Can data from several platforms be combined?

Yes. A governed data model can connect operational and financial records using agreed business keys and definitions, with reconciliation built into the delivery.

Will the integration affect the source system?

We favour supported, read-only interfaces and reporting layers. Performance, access controls and vendor limits are assessed before extraction is implemented.

Can you improve an existing integration?

Yes. We can review reliability, refresh performance, data quality, model design and operational support, then prioritise practical improvements.
