A comprehensive architecture for institutional data

When data lives in silos, trust breaks down. Your core systems - SIS, CRM, HRIS, ERP, Financial Aid - each tell a part of the story, but conflicting data unintentionally leads to conflicting decisions.

 

Most tools only solve a piece of the problem. They connect one or two systems or establish your data foundation, leaving you to manage the complexities of governance, transformation, modeling, and AI.

An outline of HelioCampus' modern data architecture.

Your medallion architecture, unlocked

"HelioCampus set up the entire environment - the data lake, ETL layer, Tableau data visualization environment, student data models that included admissions, course registration, and the entire student lifecycle. This jumpstart to our admissions, financial aid, course registrations, and student outcomes data was invaluable. If we had taken on that aspect of the project internally, it would have taken us years."
