Streamkap and SpotOn: A Partnership for Real-Time Data for Payments in Restaurants & Retail

SpotOn, a rapidly growing restaurant point-of-sale company, significantly improved its data processing efficiency by partnering with Streamkap, a real-time data streaming service. Faced with challenges such as reporting delays and high infrastructure costs, SpotOn sought a solution that could streamline their data batch-processing system and reduce latency during peak traffic times. Streamkap, which offers real-time Change Data Capture (CDC) connectors, enabled SpotOn to efficiently transfer data from production databases to Snowflake, reducing report delivery time to under five minutes and cutting total data infrastructure costs by threefold. This transition enhanced operational efficiency for restaurant managers by allowing faster access to end-of-day reports, thus improving decision-making and employee payouts. Additionally, the ease of setup, minimal maintenance requirements, and robust uptime guarantee of Streamkap allowed SpotOn's data team to focus on other priorities while benefiting from improved data capabilities and historical data access. The partnership resulted in positive outcomes for both SpotOn's external customers and internal stakeholders by delivering faster insights and reducing costs, establishing Streamkap as a valuable asset in SpotOn's data architecture.
