Outbrain’s real-time analytics architecture

Outbrain’s real-time analytics architecture consists of modern big data technologies like Kafka, Spark, Druid and Imply Pivot for query and visualization. Kafka serves as their event bus, Spark works to process and enrich the events, and Druid serves as their query engine. Druid’s ability to query petabytes of data in seconds and its native integration with Kafka made it the perfect fit.
