Case Study: Data-science firm Outra achieves insights in days (down from months) with Talend

Increasing the value and predictability of big data with science and automation

Outra is a UK-based predictive data science startup (founded 2017) that combines proprietary, non‑PII property data with deep learning to create nano‑segments and deliver actionable customer intelligence. Faced with processing massive volumes (around 2.5 billion rows per month), onboarding many new data sources, and operating with a small team, Outra needed a fast, scalable platform to deliver insights much more quickly for clients that often lack in‑house data science.

Outra adopted a cloud‑first stack on AWS with Snowflake and Talend Cloud (Big Data and Data Quality) to ingest, match, clean and analyze structured and unstructured data in near real time. The solution enabled onboarding in 1–7 days, ingested over a billion rows in under 60 seconds, and reduced insight delivery from months to days—giving Outra a clear competitive edge and driving rapid customer growth.
