Designing for Billions: A DWH-First Approach
Fever operates in a hyper-growth environment with billions of events. Tool-centric tracking (GA, Mixpanel) created silos and conflicting truths. We needed a single source of truth that was vendor-agnostic.
I designed a DWH-first architecture where the data warehouse (BigQuery/Snowflake) acts as the primary collector. Events are defined once in a canonical schema and then distributed to downstream tools.
A scalable, cost-efficient system where 'Truth' lives in our own infrastructure, not in a third-party tool. Vendor changes became trivial, and data quality became auditable.
