Real-Time Data Infrastructure for Impactful Social Programs

As a scale-up in the social enterprise sector, our mission is to leverage data for improving community services and ensuring effective resource allocation. We are embarking on a project to build a real-time data infrastructure that empowers our team to make data-driven decisions swiftly. The project involves setting up a data mesh architecture, utilizing Apache Kafka for event streaming, and integrating with platforms like BigQuery and Snowflake for efficient storage and querying. Additionally, we aim to implement MLOps and data observability practices to maintain high data quality and operational efficiency. This infrastructure will support our diverse programs in areas such as education, healthcare, and community development, offering deep insights into their performance and impact. By upgrading our data capabilities, we aim to enhance the effectiveness of our programs and demonstrate tangible social impact to stakeholders.
