Your board depends on reliable, auditable reports.
Your teams need answers to new questions fast.
Traditional data warehouses often force a trade-off between the two.

Traditional data warehouses often force a trade-off between the two.
The challenge is structural. Adding a new data source or changing a definition can trigger weeks of redesign and testing. While the system protects trust, the business slows down.
Medallion Architecture changes that balance.
It adds flexibility around your existing reporting model, without replacing what already works.

How it works in practice
- Bronze & Silver layers
New data is ingested first, before strict modeling decisions are made. Changes are absorbed upstream, so downstream reports remain stable. What used to take weeks of rework can often be handled in days. - Gold layer
This remains the trusted zone. Familiar Kimball-style facts and dimensions power board reports that are consistent, auditable, and predictable.
The result
Low-cost, scalable data storage combined with enterprise-grade reporting.
Organizations gain the ability to explore new questions quickly, without undermining the numbers leadership relies on.
