Challenge	In 2017, LINK Mobility, Europe’s leading provider of mobile communications, decided to scale up their data efforts for handling internal requests and externally with customers. Their primary offering is mobile messaging services, sending more than 6 billion messages a year worldwide carrying invoices, payments, and vouchers, associated with various services. They produce a lot of data and saw an opportunity to expand their offerings to provide more data-driven insight to customers surrounding the delivery and performance of their messages and services. They were looking to expand to customer dashboards as well as the ability to take action based on that data. However, with just a one-man data science team at the beginning of the project, they needed to be able to get up and running quickly and easily. They also needed to find a tool that would allow them to scale up data requests coming from inside the company as well as to be flexible enough to provide data insights to customers without having to use two different tools or platforms to cover their various needs, use cases, and data types.
