How Streamkap Reduced Niche.com's Data Latency from 24 Hours to Near Real-Time

Niche.com, a platform known for providing rich data on various entities like universities and cities, faced challenges with its legacy data pipeline, which had a 24-hour latency and limited data scope, hindering effective analytics and decision-making. To address these issues, Niche.com adopted Streamkap, a real-time data streaming provider using change data capture (CDC) to achieve sub-second data latency, reducing data refresh times by 95% and allowing comprehensive data access. This transition, completed in less than a day, significantly improved Niche.com's ability to make timely, data-driven decisions, particularly enhancing their new direct admissions offering by enabling the creation of performance-tracking dashboards in Tableau. Streamkap not only reduced infrastructure costs and management overhead but also provided a secure and scalable solution, making it an affordable and efficient choice for Niche.com's data needs.
