Description

InMobi, a mobile advertising platform, migrated from a multicloud data warehouse to the Databricks Data + AI Platform to unify data warehousing, AI and analytics workloads. Using Spark Declarative Pipelines for anomaly detection, InMobi achieved a 50% improvement in SLAs and an 80% reduction in costs. Teams use MLflow to build their next-generation AI platform and are exploring large language models to let end users query data conversationally. The migration also delivered 32% lower total cost of ownership, 15% faster queries, and 20% better reporting performance versus their prior multicloud data warehouse.
