About the Team:

We also ensure that this data is accessible for offline use, supporting data warehousing, client reporting, and custom dashboards.

Our team tackles complex distributed system challenges, focusing on scalability, performance, reliability, and data consistency. We leverage a modern tech stack that includes Golang for high-performance services, TiDB for scalable SQL databases, Redshift and Snowflake for data warehousing, Kafka for real-time streaming, Elasticsearch for powerful search and analytics, and HDFS for distributed storage.
