The story

One of India's fastest-growing streaming platforms producing audio content and mobile-first microdramas for millions of listeners across multiple languages.

Generating critical insights took one to two days, preventing immediate responses to payment gateway failures or marketing campaign issues. As the user base surged, legacy infrastructure struggled to scale cost-effectively or maintain governance across over 100 internal dashboards.

The organization migrated to Databricks on Google Cloud, deploying a medallion architecture with Delta Lake to process streaming events through bronze, silver, and gold quality layers. Serverless SQL compute handles fluctuating query loads for reporting, while Unity Catalog manages fine-grained data governance. MLflow orchestrates the machine learning lifecycle to deliver personalized content recommendations.
