About The Customer
Greenwich.HR is a global provider of real-time labor market intelligence, consolidating data from nearly 4 million companies and over 700 million individual profiles across 200 countries. This accounts for 80% of hiring data in developed countries. They utilize AI to normalize and consolidate data into a common framework, with Snowflake and Sigma as core components of their analytics stack. Their mission is to provide comprehensive insights into hiring, jobs, pay, skills, and experience, making them a key player in the labor market intelligence sector.
The Challenge
Greenwich.HR aimed to create a user-friendly labor market dashboard to provide real-time hiring and pay data insights. Post-pandemic, the labor market dynamics changed drastically, necessitating a broader reach beyond existing clients. Traditional BI tools like Looker, Power BI, and Tableau were evaluated but found inadequate due to their inability to handle large-scale data sets and provide fast, efficient processing. The need for a partner to build an application capable of real-time data updates and extensive filtering was critical.
The Solution
Greenwich.HR adopted Sigma, a tool designed for modern cloud data warehouses, to overcome the limitations of traditional BI tools. Sigma enabled the creation of WageScape, a next-generation compensation intelligence tool, by integrating seamlessly with Snowflake. This integration allowed for real-time updates and extensive data filtering capabilities, providing users with comprehensive visibility into hiring and pay data. The implementation was straightforward, requiring minimal resources and offering significant cost savings. Sigma's embedded analytics functionality opened new sales channels, allowing Greenwich.HR to embed WageScape with technology partners and applications, thus expanding their market reach.

SET Creative Ditches Google Vault for Datto Backupify
When Kienholz first started at SET, the staff was using Microsoft Outlook for email with no form of data backup. It became apparent that something needed to change as the staff was often burdened with trying to recover emails from departed employees. Kienholz transitioned the team to Google’s Gmail and implemented Google Vault for backup purposes. While SET employees quickly adjusted to Gmail, which many use for personal email, the same could not be said for Google Vault. “Unlike most Google products, Vault was not user friendly at all. It’s very hard to search for items. We never really figured out how to do a restore either,” explained Kienholz. Due to SET’s work with high-profile brands, projects often go through many rounds of revisions right down to the eleventh hour. This means that every bit of information - especially data living in project managers’ emails - is crucial to delivering clients a polished design at deadline.

Sawback IT and Datto Save Client From a Costly Mistake
Ballistic Echo, a software development house, faced a critical challenge when human error led to the deletion of thousands of lines of unique code. This incident occurred before the code was pushed to source control, resulting in significant loss of time, revenue, and work. The previous file-level backup solution they used was slow and inefficient, making it nearly impossible to manually recreate the lost work. The need for a more reliable and efficient business continuity solution became evident to avoid such disasters in the future.

Zapier Aggregates Multiple Analytics in a Single Dashboard with the New Relic Platform
Zapier, a company that enables non-technical users to push data between hundreds of web applications, was facing a challenge in automating and provisioning servers for optimal performance. The company's environment consisted of 50 Linux servers on the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), a Django application split across several servers, and a backend consisting of a dynamic number of celery task workers fed by messages published to a RabbitMQ cluster. They also maintained a number of internal web services on nginx in front of Gunicorn and Node.js processes. Redis handled simple key and value stores, with logging handled by Graylog2 and ElasticSearch. However, they realized that no level of automation would be sufficient without an effective monitoring solution in place. They needed a tool that could provide immediate alerts when something was breaking and could be easily implemented into their environment.
