Anything you want to avoid — and why?
Step 4 of 6

Tell us about your data.

Volume, freshness, and structure — these three shape most of the architecture.

Data volume
SmallUnder 10 GB
Medium10 GB – 500 GB
Large500 GB – 5 TB
Very large5 TB+
Processing frequency — how fresh does output need to be?
Real-timeSeconds
Near real-timeUnder 15 minutes
HourlyEvery hour
DailyOvernight or morning
WeeklyOnce a week
Data variety
Structured onlyTables, rows, relational data
Structured + semi-structuredJSON, logs, event streams
Includes unstructuredDocuments, images, PDFs
Step 5 of 6

What are your constraints?

These change the architecture more than most people realise.

Compliance requirements
HIPAA GDPR SOC 2 PCI-DSS None
Who maintains this after setup?
Non-technical founder / opsNeeds fully managed, low-ops tools
Developer — part-timeCan handle moderate complexity
Hiring a data engineerCan inherit any stack
Fully managedMinimal operational overhead
Monthly infra budget (excluding setup fees)
Under $500
$500 – $2k
$2k – $5k
$5k+
Step 6 of 6

What's the primary goal?
