CHALLENGE:
A legacy system holding back progress
Marfeel’s previous data analytics solution was an in-house development that included several open-source components. When they started to handle billions of records each month, they realized that their business needs had outgrown their data architecture; the data was siloed, and the infrastructure couldn’t scale.
SOLUTION:
Accessing real-time data requires new tech stack
Spaulding Ridge stepped in to assist Marfeel in their design and perform a “build vs. buy” evaluation process whilst the client explored which analytics solutions would best suit their unique needs.
In order to be able to work with real-time Big Data, Marfeel needed a fast and scalable analytics platform that would be accessible to all users. After evaluating several options, we decided on the combination of Looker and Snowflake.
RESULTS:
Life with a modern data stack
We helped Marfeel build a fast, scalable, and economically viable data platform that grants access to all business users. By meeting these four requirements, Marfeel was able to take their analytics to the next level while creating an environment that can support their rate of growth.
