Situation

Deriving insights on API usage
● The client B2C apps on financial tradings see heavy usage● The need was to perform API Analytics on the entire digital ecosystem including apps, consumption, performance and usage metrics like traffic trends and spikes

Issues
● Usage data is huge – in the range of 100 GB and growing● Their own attempts to run reports off this data virtually unusable, since the pages took 10s of minutes to load.● Moreover, the reports did not provide the necessary insights● No out-of-the-box solution for their specific needs  

Requirement
● A continuous, pseudo-real time ETL process to process the data● A performant and insightful API Analytics dashboard● Actionable metrics, failure reports, business usage metrics that would help them to troubleshoot as well as take business decisions
