Microsoft Azure Services
As a Microsoft Partner we are part of the native Azure Data Service Stack. All our products can integrate with Azure Services.
There are specific scenarios our Platform compliments. Using the Sentinel Data Platform you can access all of Microsoft Azure’s features intuitively, easily and quickly. The platform provides a single access point taking away the demands of directly building and managing Synapse, Data Lakes, permissions and access. The Sentinel Data Platform is a native, integrated and fully streamlined Azure service which allows you to get the most out of its technology.
Single access point of service
- Create and manage Azure resources such as Synapse, Power BI, Data Lakes
- Streamline access and simplify management of permissions and access
- Access all Azure services intuitively, easily and quickly
Consolidate multiple Azure services into one integrated end-to-end data pipeline
Centralize and integrate your resources and data
Quickly add Azure Services to existing data pipelines
Develop pipelines by adding resources as you need them
What we bring to Azure Services
Our matching technology creates a unified data set; the best basis for Azure services. The Sentinel Platform Solutions can integrate seamlessly to incorporate what you need to best achieve your goals.
Our Solutions and Services can be integrated in different ways with Microsoft Azure Services. We can provide Acquisition, Standardisation, and/or Validation, allowing you to access the best mix of the specialist services you need. This flexibility allows you to find the right solution.
Our Matching and Family Build technology can be used effectively with the combination that best suits your goals and requirements.
Augmenting our solutions are services for Machine Learning (ML), Power BI and Data Lakes - giving you access to powerful insight services.
The benefits of our Profiling technology can similarly be accessed via our Sentinel Data Platform Hub or through storage Azure services such as Data Lakes. Profiling can help identify target cohorts, and flags to potential targets. Scores and weighting can be attached in different scenarios so cohorts can be analysed by Azure Machine Learning (ML). Scores and weightings can also be layered back to family group, providing key insights for Supporting Families programmes and other intervention initiatives. All these solutions can also include effective visualisations of risks, for example for vulnerable children.
With the ability to easily combine data from multiple sources, the Sentinel Platform delivers an up-to-date and accurate master version of data that can be accessed throughout an organisation. Most-trusted data sources can be managed at field level to build up the most reliable version of the truth across your organisation. This master data can be the optimum basis for getting the best from Azure services. Use master data to get the most out of Azure services.

See Our Customer Stories
Our Data Pipeline and matching and profiling software drive power BI reports for operational and corporate level performance report.
North Yorkshire County Council
Sentinel’s Data Integration platform and Single View of Child Portal was implemented and made available to MAST (Multi Agency Safeguarding Team) users, enabling earlier and more informed decision making and intervention.
North Yorkshire County Council was the first local authority to receive “Outstanding” across the board in the Ofsted ILACS inspection.
Sentinel’s technology allows CYPS staff to access all relevant information at first contact, assisting their work to provide help and support as early as possible.
Devon County Council
Using the Sentinel Supporting Families Solution, Devon County Council were able to more effectively identify families with multiple complex needs and dependencies. The quality of data available across the authority and its partner agencies has been enhanced and is far more visible.
We have since provided further software and data service solutions to Devon County Council, assisting their work beyond the Supporting Families Programme. This has included the provision of a Microsoft Azure Power BI data warehouse, providing a comprehensive 360 view of residents and associated data points.
Liverpool City Council
Helping one of the UK's largest local authorities focus frontline services identify individuals and families who were most vulnerable. Sentinel provided an up-to-date, accurate single view of data, integrating with over 40 different data sources - including 4 from the NHS.
