The Challenge
FinServ Corp, a mid-sized financial services company, struggled with batch-processed reports that were always hours behind live data. Their existing system couldn’t handle the growing transaction volume, leading to delayed decision-making and compliance risks.
Our Approach
We designed a streaming data pipeline using Apache Kafka and a custom React dashboard with WebSocket connections for live updates. The backend was built on Node.js microservices deployed on AWS ECS, with Redis caching for sub-100ms query responses.
Key Results
Reporting latency dropped from 4+ hours to under 3 seconds. The platform handles 2.3M daily transactions with 99.97% uptime. FinServ Corp’s compliance team can now monitor transactions in real-time, reducing regulatory risk exposure by 60%.
Tech Stack
React, Node.js, Apache Kafka, PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS ECS, WebSockets, D3.js for visualizations.
