The system interfaced with MySQL for user details and job metadata, logged validation outcomes in S3 and saved the finalized document in MongoDB. By integrating with Retool dashboards we streamlined the testing phase and fostered a collaborative workspace.
  • Real-time Monitoring: Increased the monitoring of data integrity across over 1000 data feeds, resulting in faster issue detection and immediate alerting by deploying new quarkus microservices. These services listened to Kafka events, store state in MySQL, interacted with a Retool dashboard for real-time insights and used JIRA for tracking issues.
