dbt Consulting & Development Services

From messy SQL scripts to tested, version-controlled data models.

STX Next builds dbt pipelines that your team can actually maintain:

  • Full-stack data engineering: dbt + Airflow + Snowflake/Databricks + cloud infrastructure, all under one roof
  • Every model ships with tests, documentation, and lineage tracking built into the DAG
  • PoC-first approach: validate the architecture on real data before committing to a full build
  • AWS Advanced Tier Partner, ISO 27001 certification and production experience across regulated industries

Our Services

dbt Project Design & Architecture

Most failed dbt projects share the same root cause: no upfront architecture. STX Next starts every engagement with a 1–2 week assessment of your existing SQL, warehouse structure, and reporting needs. The deliverable is a documented dbt project structure (staging, intermediate, and mart layers), naming conventions, a testing strategy, and a deployment plan tailored to your warehouse platform.

dbt Migration & Refactoring

Moving from legacy SQL scripts, stored procedures, or Informatica/Talend pipelines to dbt is more than a syntax change. STX Next maps your existing transformation logic, identifies redundancies, and rebuilds it as modular, tested dbt models. Typical migrations run 8–16 weeks depending on the number of source systems and complexity of business logic.

dbt Pipeline Development

STX Next builds production dbt projects from scratch or extends existing ones. This includes writing models, macros, and custom tests, configuring incremental materializations, setting up source freshness checks, and integrating dbt into your orchestration layer (Airflow, Dagster, or Prefect). Every model ships with schema tests and auto-generated documentation.

dbt Cloud Setup & Administration

For teams choosing dbt Cloud over dbt Core, STX Next handles environment configuration, job scheduling, CI/CD integration with your Git provider, and RBAC setup. This includes configuring Slim CI for pull request testing, setting up notification channels, and establishing environment-specific deployment workflows.

Ongoing dbt Support & Optimization

After go-live, STX Next provides ongoing model optimization (query performance tuning, materialization strategy adjustments), test coverage expansion, and on-call support for pipeline failures. Typical support retainers include monthly performance reviews and quarterly architecture audits.

FAQs

Does STX Next have real experience in the industrial sector?

Yes. STX Next has delivered production-grade software for enterprise companies across manufacturing, chemicals, energy, logistics, and construction. Our experience includes large-scale IoT data platforms, predictive maintenance systems, cloud migrations, and AI tools for clients such as Linde, Canon Production Printing, Hemiko, and Boart Longyear.

Can you modernize legacy industrial systems without disrupting operations?

Absolutely. We specialize in low-risk modernization of mission-critical industrial systems. Our teams migrate legacy on-premise applications to cloud-native architectures incrementally, ensuring production continuity, secure connectivity, and minimal operational disruption.

What types of industrial companies do you work with?

We work with enterprise organizations in manufacturing, chemicals, oil & gas, renewables, utilities, logistics, supply chain, construction, and mining. Our solutions support Industry 4.0 initiatives, industrial IoT platforms, energy management systems, and complex B2B operational software.

What technologies does STX Next use for industrial software development?

Our core stack includes Python, cloud platforms (AWS, Azure), containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes), IoT ingestion tools (Azure Event Hub, Azure Data Explorer), Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), and modern data platforms designed to handle high-volume telemetry and operational data.

Do you support large-scale industrial data ingestion and analytics?

Yes. We build industrial data foundations capable of processing massive telemetry streams – including 100M+ records per day – and unifying sensor, ERP, logistics, and operational data into analytics-ready platforms for real-time monitoring and decision-making.

Can you help implement AI safely in industrial environments?

Definitely. We focus on practical, production-ready AI use cases such as predictive maintenance, computer vision for quality control, and RAG-based knowledge assistants for technical documentation. All solutions are deployed with strong security controls and can run on private or hybrid cloud infrastructure.

Do you build internal operational tools or customer-facing industrial platforms?

Both. We develop internal systems for engineers, plant managers, and operations teams, as well as customer-facing industrial platforms such as configuration and quoting engines, logistics portals, and B2B marketplaces – always optimized for performance and reliability.

How do you handle security and reliability in industrial software projects?

Security and reliability are foundational. STX Next is ISO 27001 certified, and we design systems with secure connectivity, access control, observability, and auditability in mind. Our architectures are built to support high availability, fault tolerance, and the physical realities of industrial operations.

What makes STX Next different from a typical industrial software vendor?

We combine deep industrial domain knowledge with strong engineering and data expertise. Our teams understand the physical processes behind the software – from factory floors to energy grids – and deliver solutions that scale, remain secure, and generate measurable operational impact.
