Case Study: a global consumer data technology company achieves faster, audit-ready Databricks deployments with KPI Partners' GitOps CI/CD on AWS

a global consumer data technology company reduces pipeline failures to zero with KPI Partners

A global consumer data technology company was struggling with manual deployment processes for its Databricks pipelines on AWS, which led to significant configuration drift between environments. This resulted in 5-7 pipeline failures per month and a slow time-to-production of 2-3 weeks for new pipelines. They partnered with KPI Partners to implement a modern, automated solution to eliminate these issues and create an audit trail for deployments.

KPI Partners implemented a GitOps-driven CI/CD solution using Databricks Asset Bundles (DABs) and GitHub Actions. This automated multi-environment deployments and eliminated configuration drift. The results were transformative: the company reduced its time-to-production for new pipelines by approximately 93% to just 2 business days, eliminated configuration-drift-caused pipeline failures entirely, and achieved 100% of production deployments backed by an immutable audit trail on AWS.
