Making Big Data Useful Data
summary
Company logs roughly 15 billion events a day into Hadoop (about 200 nodes) and a column store, models data into QVDs for ClickView, and adds a cohort layer to avoid duplicating dimensional work. Reporting pipeline produces time‑series and install cohorts, yielding performance, dependability and trust. Internal tools like QV Helper and Master Portal plus Usage Insight track report dependencies and consumption, letting teams prune or fix reports — practical, deployed, and used to cut load and improve consistency.
