In today's data driven economy, organizations across industries face unprecedented challenges in managing and derive value from their ever-growing information assets. Success depends on establishing clean and consolidated and trusted data, which forms the foundation for unlocking the true potential of AI driven insights.

The rapid expansion of data sources, along with rising expectations for real time intelligence and compliance with evolving regulations, has created an urgent need for robust, scalable data integration solutions.

This whitepaper presents a framework for implementing enterprise data platform using Microsoft Azure's cloud ecosystem, addressing the complex challenges of data fragmentation, quality assurance, and analytical readiness. The proposed architecture leverages Azure's native services to create a unified data platform that transforms disparate data sources into actionable insights. Through careful orchestration of Azure Data Factory, Databricks, and Data Lake Storage Gen2, organizations can achieve significant improvements in operational efficiency, data quality, and time-to-insight while maintaining enterprise-grade security compliance standards.
