"Real-time 24/7 monitoring and verification of massive data is challenging – even more so for the world’s second largest manufacturer of memory chips and semiconductors. Tolerance levels are incredibly small, any small defect needs to be identified and dealt with immediately. The goal of semiconductor manufacturing is to improve yield and minimize unnecessary work. However, even with real-time data collection, the data was not easy to manipulate by users and it took many days to enable stream processing requests – limiting its usefulness and value to the business. You’ll hear why SK hynix switched to Confluent and how we developed a self-service stream process portal on top of it. Now users have an easy-to-use service to manipulate the data they want. Results have been impressive, stream processing requests are available the same day – previously taking 5 days! We were also able to drive down costs by 10% as stream processing requests no longer require additional hardware. What you’ll take away from our talk: - What were the pain points in the previous environment - How we transitioned to Confluent without service downtime - Creating a self-service stream processing portal built on top of Connect and ksqlDB - Use case of stream process portal"
