Overview
1
The eCommerce platform relied on its production database for both customer operations and analytics, which slowed performance and capped scalability. The brand management company was burdened by human-intensive processes to monitor and respond to online activity across thousands of accounts. Both faced the same barrier: scaling efficiently without compromising reliability.

Sierra designed solutions tailored to each business but built on shared principles: streaming, automation, and intelligence. For the eCommerce platform, we built a decoupled data pipeline using change data capture and Kafka, feeding into a dedicated analytics environment on Databricks. For the brand management company, we deployed AI-driven automation to classify and triage online activity in real time, freeing teams to focus on higher-value work.
