What you'll learn

  • Explore Apache Kylin and learn how China Construction Bank used it to refactor a data warehouse for mobile analytics

Description

China Construction Bank (CCB) is the second-largest bank in China and #28 on the Global Fortune 500. Recently, the bank decided to refactor and migrate its legacy data warehouse to a new data warehouse architecture to fulfill its fast-growing business. In early 2017, CCB kicked off one project to migrate 23,000+ reports to mobile. The MVP worked well but would soon have to face the performance and concurrency challenges of serving 400K+ users.

CCB had built its enterprise data warehouse with Teradata for years. It also considered the traditional data warehouse applications and big data platform used by other giant banks. Ultimately, it chose Apache Kylin as the high-performance and high-concurrency platform to refactor its data warehouse architecture.

Zhi Zhu and Luke Han detail the necessary architecture and best practices for refactoring a data warehouse for mobile analytics. Along the way, they offer an overview of Apache Kylin and explain how it lowered the cost but sped up migration process, empowered users to gain quick insights through mobile, and unleashed productivity through self-service and its unified KPI. They also outline CCB’s plans to build a fusion data lake with Apache Kylin to connect to the legacy data warehouse, big data platform, and others.
