Snowflake Data Platform & PostgreSQL CDC

Client: US delivery-tech unicorn

A Snowflake platform for a US delivery-tech unicorn with log-based PostgreSQL CDC via Meltano, Dagster on AKS and a Cube.js semantic layer.

The Challenge

Data from production databases, partner APIs, FTP drops and mobile app events lived in separate places, so the company had no single source of truth for reporting.

Our Solution

Designed a Snowflake platform with log-based PostgreSQL CDC through Meltano, Dagster orchestration on AKS, a fault-tolerant FTP ingestion service, and a Cube.js semantic layer feeding Looker. Snowflake roles and permissions are managed in Terraform.

Outcomes

One Snowflake warehouse for databases, APIs and app events

Log-based CDC instead of full-table reloads

Snowflake access managed as code with Terraform and CI/CD

Consistent metrics for BI through a Cube.js semantic layer
