Modern Analytics Applications in the Financial Industry

They both say they’re fast; they both say they scale. Should you flip a coin or are there real technical differences that matter? The developers at Netflix, Twitter, Confluent, Salesforce, and many others chose Druid for good reason.

Watch this webinar and get the facts that lay out the differences. And if you’re a ClickHouse user looking for a change, we’ll show you an easy path to Druid via Imply.

Here’s what we will cover:
- Architecture: the differences in each system’s design
- Flexibility: how you scale out on both systems
- Streaming: how each system handles high-volume event data
- Resilience: what you do on each system to avoid losing data

The New Database Battle: Apache Druid vs. ClickHouse

Why Kafka and Druid are the Perfect Match for Real-Time Analytics Applications?

To succeed in today’s increasingly competitive environment, organizations need real-time, granular insights into their business and operations to grow revenues, fight fraud, and deliver a great customer experience over digital channels. At the same time, share these real-time operational and business insights externally with the customers and partners they serve.

To gain these real-time operational and business insights and share them with customers and partners, requires developers to build apps that bring together streaming data and interactive analytics to push real-time visibility to the next level. This leaves developers trying to figure out what is the right architecture.

Many are asking - how can I ingest millions of events per second? How can I analyze billions of rows interactively in seconds? How can I scale to thousands of end-users concurrently without prohibitive costs? That’s where the K2D (Kafka-to-Druid) stack comes in.

Companies like Netflix, Pinterest, Citrix - as well as Confluent and Imply - have built analytics applications leveraging the K2D stack for real-insights for internal and external users. Join Confluent and Imply, where we will take attendees on a journey to explore:

- What problems does Kafka solve and how does Confluent make it easier?
- Key challenges for building real-time analytics applications and how Imply and Druid fit into the world of analytics applications
- Live demo + use cases:
   ~ how to build an architecture to capture and transform streaming data to analytics applications
   ~ what are some of the use cases from digital native organizations and how these leading companies use Kaffa and Druid to achieve their business goals

Confluent + Imply: Monetize streaming data with real-time analytics applications

It can be challenging to model 1-to-n data relationships in Druid. If you’ve tried, you probably did tons of JOIN operations to build an array. Did you know that with multi-value dimensions you can filter and group complex data quickly and easily?

In this webinar you will:
- Learn the basics of multi-value dimensions and when they are useful
- Get a step-by-step guide to setting up registered lists of data as multi-value string dimensions
- See how a major telecommunications provider is using multi-value dimensions to analyze complex data

企业和组织依赖成千上万机器学习所建立的模型数据来自动决定数据流的安全性，对于特定的事件或者交易流程是否接受、禁止或者持续监控。即便是细微的流程改变可能都会影响到决策模型或者是引入模型中新的变量。

这些变量可能来自模型或系统内部的改变，也可能来自用户端的行为改变。有时我们需要对此做出相应的调整 —— 譬如当有可疑的欺诈行为，进入新的市场 或者是一个节日性的事件造成的变化等等；而有时我们又需要静观其变。因而快速帮助用户理解这些改变从而决定是否要做出相应的调整变得至关重要。

Imply 提供了一个高度可扩展的平台来帮助用户实时监测机器学习模型中可能出现的异常事件并能发出实时警报。

Organizations are applying hundreds to thousands of automated workflows and machine learning models to automatically determine whether to block, accept or watch a specific transaction or an event. Even a slight change in one of these workflows may impact decision rates or introduce anomalies to your Ml models.

These anomalies in decision rates can be caused by internal changes in models and system components. It can also be caused by changes on the customers’ side: integration or decision behavior. Sometimes a change in decision rates is desirable – such as when there’s a fraud attack, entering into a new market, or a seasonal event, but sometimes it doesn’t. Therefore, it is essential to immediately identify and triage changes in decision rates to ensure users get accurate results.

Imply provides a highly scalable platform that enables real-time monitoring of ML models by allowing users to identify anomalies and generate automated alerts in real-time accurately. 

Key takeaways:
- How you can optimize your machine learning using Imply:
- Monitor machine learning as an application using open telemetry and Imply pivot                                      
- Improve model accuracy and training time using Imply as a source of training data                                  
- Use Imply in a model prediction pipeline

Imply Druid Story at The Indian Express

Sherlock is an anomaly detection service built on top of Druid, especially for time-series data. It leverages EGADS (Extensible Generic Anomaly Detection System) to learn the data patterns and automatically detect anomalies in large-scale time-series data. Data Quality monitoring of product-specific KPIs is a problem common all over the company. Speedy, accurate detection with minimal false alerts can lead to spotting and fixing problems before they have a large impact on business. Typically, there are two solutions to the problem: manually eyeball graphs every day to look for irregularities or set up upper and lower bound thresholds for automated alerting. While eyeballing is the more accurate of the two, it's not a scalable approach. Automated thresholding allows monitoring many metrics at once; however, threshold-based alerting can lead to too many missed issues or, conversely, too many false alerts. Neither is perfect. Sherlock combines the best of both approaches by building models based on historical time-series, which can be as accurate as manual eyeballing while having the ability to scale out and monitor as many metrics as required.

Confluent Cloud operates a multi-tenant Kafka service, spanning multiple cloud providers and regions across the globe. Offering a cloud service means operational visibility needs to go beyond their internal teams and extend to their customers, who depend on Confluent for a critical piece of their infrastructure. 

This talk will cover what it takes to build large-scale cloud infrastructure and how Apache Druid has helped us push real-time operational and business visibility to the next level. We'll also cover lessons learned from scaling to large data and query volumes, and optimizing our clusters when onboard new customers and use-cases. Operating multi-tenant services requires fine-grained visibility down to the individual tenant, user, or application behavior, where most traditional monitoring stacks fail to scale or become cost-prohibitive. Leveraging Apache Druid means we don't shy away from high-cardinality data, so our teams not only can quickly troubleshoot issues but also glean detailed understanding to help improve the product. That gives us the flexibility to expose the same data to engineering, product teams, and our customers, exposing the insights they need.

Here at Ippen Digital we build scalable software solutions for a continuously growing network of over 80 regional news publishers in Germany. This network delivers content for over 100 million monthly active users across various different platforms. Our mission is clear: we want to nurture pluralistic journalism and give our publishers the possibility to voice their opinions openly, while still being profitable for them to continue doing what they are meant to do. On the other hand we want to provide our audience with a great user experience and the content that is really relevant to them. Therefore we aim to truly understand our users and give them a reason to adapt their habits. Together with psychologists we are opening up the field of behavioral science and contextual optimization. The software ecosystem we have built to achieve these goals is sophisticated and state-of-the-art with Apache Druid as one of its core elements. Our data journey with Apache Druid started 3.5 years ago. As our central facts and KPI storage, Druid allows us to generate valuable insights for management and editors alike through dashboards and reports, it provides our data science teams with explorative datasets, and it serves as an integral part for several products – for instance, editorial news assistance in the newsrooms or a personal news assistant – as well as machine learning algorithms. We are here to share our experiences and learnings, and we want to give a high-level demonstration of the potential and benefits of running Apache Druid in a complex data environment while also showing two concrete examples.
