Netflix is the leading online video subscription service, reaching millions of US and international households. Netflix became well known as a data driven company for our personalized recommendations, but our use of data doesn't stop there. From testing new features for the website to measuring performance across many devices to making wise choices about content, we use our petabytes of data to move the business forward. To do that we have built a big data platform that, along with the rest of our infrastructure, lives in the cloud and will continue to grow with us as we expand.
This platform is used by engineers and data scientists to leverage our data to do interesting and impactful analysis and allow Netflix to continue to innovate. Our team works to make it as easy and efficient as possible to work with all of this data. While there are many cutting edge open source technologies being built, they often require a lot of hidden engineering to take full advantage of them, so we work to make sure the tools we are using fit well in our AWS architecture, scale to the data, and have a low barrier of entry.
You can check out some of the services we have built on github: Genie and Lipstick.
