Case Study: Kollective Technology achieves real-time streaming performance analytics and rapid, scalable insights with Looker

Looker + Kollective Adding Value to Video Streaming

Kollective is a cloud-based enterprise content delivery network that speeds and scales video streaming across corporate networks. As video became central to corporate communications, Kollective faced growing volumes of mixed, real-time data from many sources and a legacy analytics stack that was slow, inflexible, and unable to deliver the custom, fast insights customers and IT teams needed.

Kollective replaced its analytics with a MemSQL database and Looker for in-database visualization, powering Kollective IQ with one- to 1.5-second dashboard responses, self-service reporting, and real-time scorecards. The solution delivered scalable, secure (SOC2/GDPR) analytics that unlocked a new revenue stream, improved help-desk visibility into buffering and hotspots, demonstrated bandwidth/cost savings, and freed engineers to focus on advanced data science and product features.
