Case Study: True Digital Group achieves scalable, reliable open-source analytics and $2M+ licensing savings with Acceldata Pulse (Acceldata)

True Digital Scales Open-source Platform and Reduces Costs

True Digital Group faced unreliable, unscalable analytics: its open-source stack (HBase, Hive, Spark, Kafka) was processing around 400M cash transactions per month (~1.1K TPS) into a 15PB data lake, yet roughly half of ingested data remained unprocessed. To address performance, scalability, and observability gaps, they worked with Acceldata and deployed Acceldata Pulse.

Acceldata used Pulse to isolate bottlenecks, automate performance improvements, and distinguish mandatory from unnecessary data so the 15PB lake could reliably support enterprise analytics. As a result, Acceldata helped True Digital Group transition to open-source technologies, cut annual software licensing costs by more than $2M, saved over $1M in projected capex, increased system capacity, and eliminated day‑to‑day engineering firefighting on outages and performance degradation.
