Inspect the highlighted sourceThe challenge
TTB's on-premises data infrastructure limited personalized products and services to just 500,000 customers, with batch processing causing a two-day data latency lag, shared resource constraints raising system breakdown risk, and numerous dependencies making the architecture too inflexible to quickly deploy new features.
The solution
TTB migrated their in-house Delphi personalization engine to a unified lakehouse on Azure Databricks, integrating with Google Cloud Pub/Sub and Azure Event Hub, adopting Unity Catalog for centralized data governance across teams and partners, and using Databricks Lakeflow Jobs to orchestrate and automate data pipelines, enabling real-time processing for hyperpersonalized recommendations, fraud detection and propensity scoring.
Reported business value
Personalized products and services now reach 5.5 million customers, up from the previous 500K limit, with TTB achieving a 10x increase in card generation capacity for highly targeted offers and a 2x acceleration in digital sales growth, while insight latency dropped from two days to about one day and TTB reached 100% adoption of Unity Catalog.
