Introduction to Netflix and Our Mission
At Netflix, we are revolutionizing the way entertainment is imagined, created, and delivered to a global audience. With content streaming in over 30 languages in 190 countries, surpassing 220 million paid subscribers, and venturing into new forms of entertainment like gaming, we are continuously pushing the boundaries of what is possible. Our data infrastructure teams play a pivotal role in enabling us to leverage data to bring joy to our members in various ways. We provide unified data platforms and tools for different business functions at Netflix, allowing them to use our data to make informed, data-driven decisions. Our goal is to make it easy for our colleagues to work with data efficiently, securely, and effectively.
About Our Data Infrastructure Groups
We have several focus areas within our data infrastructure groups, each critical to our mission of delivering exceptional entertainment experiences. These include:
- Database Access Platform: This team builds and operates a flexible query gateway that facilitates data abstractions to work at sub-millisecond latencies, enabling Netflix microservices to more easily store, consume, and manage their data.
- Data Platform Infrastructure: Acting as a platform for our own data platforms, this team's shared infrastructure and tooling enable Netflix to rapidly innovate in providing cutting-edge data and analytics systems to the rest of the company without needing bespoke platforms for each new system.
- Data Ingestion and Processing: Offers a decoupled self-service cleared path product to enable diverse client personas across Netflix to meet their low-latency data ingestion and processing needs, enabling abstraction over complex streaming structures like Kafka and Flink, and offering a graph-driven processing experience.
- Big Data Figure: Responsible for providing the cloud-native platform for distributed data processing at Netflix, supporting batch data processing in Data Platform, and offering sub-second latency for a specific class of queries using Druid.
- Big Data Solution: Provides the platform for scheduling, orchestrating, and executing big data jobs and workflows in a self-serve way, including primary services that have all ETL and ML tasks running on Big Data Frameworks at Netflix.
