Challenge
Recognizing the limitations of manual processes, Koalafi sought scalable solutions through their partnership with Ippon Technologies. They aimed to establish scalable and repeatable data pipelines for SFTP servers and sought assistance with refactoring and optimization. By addressing these challenges, Ippon was able to help Koalafi handle growing data volumes and enhance its ability to scale effectively. The expertise of Ippon Technologies played a crucial role in achieving these goals.
Solution
Ippon Technologies developed customizable Databricks notebooks equipped with adjustable environment variables to provide flexibility. These notebooks facilitated optimized and reliable data extraction and loading between SFTP servers and Snowflake, significantly reducing setup time and ensuring coding consistency. This streamlined process enabled Koalafi to swiftly create additional data pipelines for different servers, efficiently adapting to evolving data needs.
Additionally, Ippon Technologies automated time-consuming manual processes that burdened Koalafi's customer service agents. Replacing manual reviews and report compilation with automated processes frees agents' time to focus on high-value tasks. Ippon also improved performance and accelerated data processing for Koalafi by refactoring and optimizing lengthy database models. The implementation of the elementary platform strengthened data monitoring and issue resolution, providing near-real-time notifications for Data Lake issues and targeted alerting to respective business owners responsible for specific data domains.
Benefits
