CHALLENGES

  • Agile development models cannot work efficiently with schema-based tools.
  • Agile development models cannot use standard relational database management system solutions.
  • Cloud and Big Data technologies require a designated skillset, hiring a specialized consultant or steep learning curve.

  • Fiverr needed a data environment that would be scalable but Integrate.io was the only solution that would allow BI to be independent from IT and R&D.
  • Finding an open schema in order to make changes while concurrently working on new parameters to add is extremely difficult.

  • Fiverr implemented Integrate.io's data integration solution over a couple of days with positive results.

RESULTS

  • Integrate.io's cloud architecture made it very simple to implement data integration for BI needs.
  • Fiverr analysts were able to run complex analytical tasks within a few clicks.
  • There was no need for a technical person to take care of infrastructure maintenance and optimization.
  • Fiverr easily stays up to date with new changes on the site while keeping it responsive to new metrics.
  • The duration of complex BI processes from business request to analytical insight shrank dramatically.

Fiverr Gets Speed and Simplicity

Initially, Fiverr tried to address their Big Data processing and storage challenges by implementing a columnar database to store traffic data. However, this proved to be far too large of a project and too time consuming to handle in-house. Fiverr needed a solution which could be implemented quickly and easily with minimal effort from the IT team. The company selected Integrate.io and after a few days and minimal changes in their data file structure, the BI team was able to run the complex analytical tasks on their own with a few clicks and process data 50% faster without the need for external resources.
