Real-Time Data Pipeline Implementation for Dynamic Pricing in Travel Technology

As a growing startup in the Travel Technology industry, we are focused on revolutionizing travel booking experiences with our cutting-edge dynamic pricing engine. To maintain a competitive edge and meet market demands, we require a robust real-time data pipeline that can seamlessly integrate with our existing systems. The core objective is to enable dynamic and precise pricing adjustments based on real-time data inputs, including demand fluctuations, competitor pricing, and booking patterns. The project will leverage Apache Kafka for efficient event streaming, ensuring that data is rapidly ingested and processed. Apache Spark will be used for real-time analytics, allowing us to derive insights at scale and with low latency. Airflow will manage and orchestrate the various data workflows, ensuring seamless integration and data processing. Additionally, dbt will be employed for data transformation, while Snowflake or BigQuery will serve as our data warehouse, providing scalable and reliable data storage. Given the rapidly evolving nature of the travel industry and the critical need for responsive pricing strategies, this project is of high urgency. We anticipate a development timeline of 4-6 weeks to meet the market demand and secure our position as a leader in travel technology innovation.
