How Netflix Keeps Its Data Infrastructure Cost-Effective
Blog post from Acceldata
Netflix has one of the largest data infrastructures globally, with dozens of data platforms and hundreds of petabytes in its data warehouse alone. To manage costs effectively, Netflix built a custom "data efficiency" dashboard that provides comprehensive cost and performance transparency for all data users and teams. The dashboard offers real-time views depending on the user's role and helps identify bottlenecks and potential savings opportunities. This approach has led to significant reductions in data warehouse storage costs, proving effective in managing expenses within a massive data environment.
