What is Cloud-Native Data & AI Infrastructure?

Your AI ambitions are only as strong as your data foundation

Without a secure, scalable data and AI infrastructure, even the smartest AI models will fall short, impacting your operational efficiency and strategic goals. ZeroStone specializes in building the robust, future-proof bedrock that ensures your AI investments deliver real, continuous value.

ZeroStone specializes in crafting these high-performance, secure data and AI foundations. We help you centralize disparate data sources into intelligent data lakes and warehouses, build robust ETL/ELT pipelines, and establish a resilient infrastructure optimized for both traditional analytics and the demanding requirements of autonomous AI agents. This ensures a single source of truth and a powerful engine for all your intelligent initiatives.

Our Infrastructure Design & Implementation Process

Step 1: Current State Assessment & Future Visioning

Description: We begin with an in-depth analysis of your existing IT systems, data sources, current cloud footprint (if any), and future growth projections. We identify architectural bottlenecks and data silos that hinder AI adoption and define a target cloud-native architecture aligned with your strategic objectives.

Focus: Understanding your current landscape and defining an optimal future-state infrastructure.

Step 2: Data Lake / Data Warehouse Architecture & Design

Description: We design a centralized, secure, and scalable data lake (for raw, unstructured data) and/or a data warehouse (for structured, analytical data) using leading cloud services like Google BigQuery. The design emphasizes creating a "single source of truth" for core entities and ensuring data integrity.

Focus: Building the centralized repositories for all your business data.

Step 3: ETL/ELT Pipelines & Data Integration

Description: We build robust Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) or Extract, Load, Transform (ELT) pipelines using services like Dataflow or Cloud Data Fusion. These pipelines integrate data from disparate systems, clean, standardize, and load it into your data lake/warehouse, ensuring high data quality for AI training and operations.

Focus: Ensuring continuous, high-quality data flow to power your AI.

Step 4: API & Integration Layer Development

Description: We develop a secure API Gateway (e.g., Apigee) to expose internal systems, allowing AI agents and external applications to interact programmatically. We also build integration workflows between cloud AI services and your existing tech stack, ensuring seamless data exchange and workflow automation.

Focus: Creating the connective tissue that enables AI agents to interact with your enterprise systems.

Step 5: Security, Governance & Compliance Blueprint

Description: Security and data governance are designed in from the ground up. We implement robust measures like VPC Service Controls, Customer-Managed Encryption Keys (CMEK), granular Identity and Access Management (IAM), and comprehensive audit logging. We also formalize ethical AI guidelines and anonymization strategies.

Focus: Ensuring your infrastructure is secure, compliant, and trustworthy for AI.
