Medallion Architecture: A Quadrant-Driven Framework

At Quadrant Technologies, our implementation of the Medallion architecture is expertly tailored for the healthcare industry, providing a structured framework that enhances patient care and operational efficiency. This architecture processes healthcare data through sequential layers, each adding value to data quality and analysis, and adhering to best practices in data governance and compliance.

Bronze Layer (Raw Data Ingestion):

• Purpose: This foundational layer captures raw data from diverse healthcare sources, including patient records, treatment histories, and clinical notes.
• Process: Utilizing our DataIngestion_Blob_to_BronzeLakehouse component, we ensure secure and organized storage of both structured and unstructured healthcare data, setting the stage for further processing.
• Impact: Storing raw data supports comprehensive historical analysis and compliance, crucial for auditing and enhancing patient care.

Silver Layer (Data Cleaning and Transformation):

• Purpose: This layer focuses on improving data quality by cleaning, transforming, and curating data for more detailed analysis.
• Process: Our DynamicCleaning_andStoringto_SilverLakehouse notebook performs essential data quality checks, such as removing duplicates, addressing missing values, and cleaning anomalies.
• Impact: High-quality data is vital for accurate predictive modeling, reducing errors in patient assessments and improving healthcare outcomes.

Gold Layer (Optimized Data for Analysis and Reporting):

• Purpose: The Gold layer contains refined, analytics-ready datasets, optimized for business intelligence, machine learning, and reporting.
• Process: Data is enriched and moved via the SilverLakehouse_to_GoldLakehouse component, ensuring efficiency in querying and analysis.
• Impact: With high-quality, organized data, healthcare providers can make informed, timely decisions, enhancing patient care and operational efficiency.
