"We’ve got billions of records, but scale only matters if people can use it. Lakebase makes that data fast and governed, so our teams answer client questions instead of waiting on specialists." - Mike Nyhan, Product Director for Data as a Service, Worldpanel by Numerator
Worldpanel by Numerator, a global shopper intelligence provider, built Item Picker on Lakebase and the Databricks Platform to make massive transaction datasets easier for everyday users to navigate. The result: global report delivery improved from 12 days to 1 day, while teams can work with billions of records and thousands of attributes through a fast, governed experience.
Key highlights:
- 12 days → 1 day: One global report is now delivered 11 days faster, with a longer-term goal of moving toward near-zero-day reporting after each period ends.
- 18B transaction records made usable: Item Picker helps teams explore and select data at scale without relying on a small group of specialists.
- 8K attributes in one interface: Users can choose the fields they need through a single Lakebase-powered experience.
- A faster, governed foundation: Lakebase provides the performance, permissions, and direct connection needed to serve data without copying it into separate systems or maintaining custom sync processes.
- Built for what’s next: The same foundation can support broader self-service experiences and future AI-powered insights.
