AnalyticsCreator is a metadata-driven design application for data warehouse automation and data product engineering across the Microsoft data stack.
Its Governed Control Model connects business meaning, data structures, transformation rules, dependencies, lineage and technical implementation in one controlled project model. Data teams design the required architecture in AnalyticsCreator, then generate native Microsoft assets from that design.
Generated outputs can include SQL Server objects, SSIS packages, Azure Data Factory pipelines, supported Microsoft Fabric components, deployment artefacts and Power BI semantic models. AnalyticsCreator supports dimensional, 3NF and hybrid modelling approaches together with ingestion, transformations, delta loading, historisation, Slowly Changing Dimensions, snapshots and repeatable data-processing patterns.
Because generated outputs are native Microsoft technology, no AnalyticsCreator runtime is required in production. Organisations retain ownership of the resulting implementation and can integrate generated assets into Git, Azure DevOps and CI/CD workflows.
Lineage, documentation and dependency information remain connected to the design, helping teams understand change impact before regenerating affected assets.
Design Intelligence extends this governed project context into AI-assisted data engineering by providing authorised AI tools and agents with structured access to metadata, lineage, dependencies and design rules.
Typical use cases include enterprise data warehouse development, Microsoft Fabric adoption, SQL Server and SSIS modernisation, governed Power BI delivery and repeatable data product engineering.

Apache Doris
Apache Doris serves as a cutting-edge data warehouse tailored for real-time analytics, enabling exceptionally rapid analysis of data at scale.
It features both push-based micro-batch and pull-based streaming data ingestion that occurs within a second, alongside a storage engine capable of real-time upserts, appends, and pre-aggregation.
With its columnar storage architecture, MPP design, cost-based query optimization, and vectorized execution engine, it is optimized for handling high-concurrency and high-throughput queries efficiently.
Moreover, it allows for federated querying across various data lakes, including Hive, Iceberg, and Hudi, as well as relational databases such as MySQL and PostgreSQL.
Doris supports complex data types like Array, Map, and JSON, and includes a Variant data type that facilitates automatic inference for JSON structures, along with advanced text search capabilities through NGram bloomfilters and inverted indexes.
Its distributed architecture ensures linear scalability and incorporates workload isolation and tiered storage to enhance resource management.
Additionally, it accommodates both shared-nothing clusters and the separation of storage from compute resources, providing flexibility in deployment and management.
