Unifying financial data with data engineering

Business challenges

Time-consuming: Collecting and analyzing stock data from multiple sites can be a time-consuming task, hindering businesses from focusing on other critical areas.

Lack of consistency: Data from different sources can be inconsistent, making it challenging to compare and draw meaningful conclusions.

Human error: Manually collecting data increases the risk of human error, which can impact the quality and reliability of the information.

Inability to handle large amounts of data: Collecting and analyzing large amounts of data manually can be overwhelming, leading to missed opportunities and inaccurate decision making.

Lack of real-time data: Manually collecting data from multiple sources can result in a lag in receiving real-time information, affecting the ability to make timely decisions.

Dependence on manual labor: Relying on manual labor for data collection increases the risk of data loss and process disruptions.
