Data and integration
Data integration that does not break every night
Between the legacy system and the cloud there is a path the data travels every night. When it fails, someone hears about it from a user, reprocesses by hand and turns into a retry operator. Inove treats that path as a product: classified, tested, monitored and reversible.
What data and integration covers
It is the discipline almost everyone still hides inside “development” — and the one that decides whether the report adds up.
Replication and loads
From the legacy database to the modern target, with error handling by class instead of blind reprocessing.
Dictionary conversion
Type, encoding, key and null resolved with AI support and human review — the AI proposes, we decide.
Batch pipelines
A parameterised template published from the command line: the same fix applies to the whole set.
System-to-system integration
API, file or messaging, with a defined contract, safe retries and a plan for when the other side goes down.
Quality and reconciliation
Counts, totals the business recognises and sampling at the edges — where the errors actually live.
Flow monitoring
An alert when the data stops arriving. Without it, the discovery comes at month-end close.
How we stabilise a broken flow
Classify before fixing. That is what turns “every night fails differently” into a short, workable list.
- 01
Classify the failure
The messages become a handful of error classes, each with a known diagnosis and fix.
- 02
Write the runbook
How to identify it, which query confirms it, what the fix is and how to validate afterwards.
- 03
Make it idempotent
Running twice must give the same result as running once. Without that, every reprocess duplicates.
- 04
Monitor and prove
An alert on the flow and automatic validation within the window, with evidence of what went through.
What changes for the team
The on-call engineer resolves it
With a runbook, whoever is on call handles the routine classes and escalates only what is genuinely new.
A fix that propagates
With a template and the command line, what took hours per pipeline now applies to all of them in minutes.
Numbers that add up
Layered reconciliation finds precision loss and corruption that a simple count never sees.
Less reliance on heroes
The knowledge leaves the head of whoever lived through the history and becomes a procedure.
