Revolutionizing In-App Analytics Experience with IoT: A Case Study
The client, a market research tech company, provides interactive analytics to marketing teams, enabling them to research their competitors’ brand and marketing activities as well as their own. The platform relies on massive volumes of web-traffic data and other sources, which are continuously streamed into S3 and used for various use cases and features within the customer-facing analytics platform. A key component of delivering a great user experience for their customers is ensuring that users don’t have to wait long to get results for their questions. However, waiting more than a couple of seconds was considered unacceptable. This led the company to make several painful tradeoffs. They had to limit their analysis to a month of data (~10TB), instead of a quarter (~40TB), due to the decrease in performance when trying to analyze a larger data set. They also had to aggregate data for full-year analysis features to maintain performance, while sacrificing the ability to drill into the granular data. Furthermore, they had to limit the types of data that could be analyzed, as many semi-structured sources could not be analyzed quickly enough compared to structured data.
