Case Study

Overview

A leading insurance enterprise managing millions of policyholder and claim records faced growing challenges in maintaining and optimizing their massive PostgreSQL databases.

Every department from onboarding to claims processing and medical history needed tailored data views and real-time reporting. Shrijan Tech partnered with them under a Staff Augmentation model, embedding a team of four expert developers within their internal data team. Together, we managed end-to-end database operations, optimized queries for performance, and developed interactive Power BI dashboards for business intelligence and departmental reporting. This collaboration helped the client reduce operational costs, boost efficiency, and maintain complete data reliability at scale.
