Project Description: -

This project is mainly for creating an INTEGRATED data to Cognizant. Azure Data Factory is being used as an
ETL tool. Data will be extracted from Oracle source to Data lake and Azure Synapse Analytics. This Data
warehouse will be used as a base to accommodate all the reporting requirements.

This project is used to capture all the campaign details for Cognizant. It is managing different types of ads with
Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Admovils. We have created Dashboard to know the maximum impressions and
clicks with respective social media apps.

Roles & Responsibilities-Supporting: -

● Created pipelines to extract data from on premises source systems to azure cloud data lake storage;
Extensively worked on copy activities and implemented the copy behavior’s such as flatten hierarchy,
preserve hierarchy and Merge hierarchy. Implemented Error Handling concept through copy activity.
● Exposure to Azure Data Factory activities such as Lookups, Stored procedures, if condition, for each, Set
Variable, Append Variable, Get Metadata, Filter and wait.
● Create dynamic pipeline to handle multiple sources extracting to multiple targets; extensively used azure
key vaults to configure the connections in linked services.
● Configured and implemented the Azure Data Factory Triggers and scheduled the Pipelines; monitored
the scheduled Azure Data Factory pipelines and configured the alerts to get notification of failure
pipelines.
