关于客户
GetYourGuide is an online platform that connects travelers to experiences, helping their users to find and book attractions worldwide: museums, guided tours, day trips, and more. With over 30,000 attraction listings, some of the lowest prices in the industry, and fast and easy booking, GetYourGuide has become a top resource for tourists. GetYourGuide stands apart from other online booking sites with their dedication to an excellent customer experience, an expansive range of products, and a beautiful website. Although GetYourGuide is based in Germany and is founded on strong EU traffic, it has a huge user base in the US and Canada, and is focused on serving a rapidly expanding global market.
挑战
GetYourGuide, an online platform that connects travelers to experiences, was facing a significant increase in fraud as the range of attractions offered on the site and the number of daily transactions grew. Chargebacks from card-not-present fraud and fraudsters using last minute bookings for nonrefundable products began to impact GetYourGuide’s bottom line. To combat fraud, GetYourGuide’s lean team started manually reviewing suspicious transactions. But this cumbersome process did little to reduce their fraud, and chargebacks remained debilitatingly common. With GetYourGuide, customers had the ability to purchase tickets minutes before walking into an event; this miniscule window of time made scalable and efficient manual review impossible. Even worse, GetYourGuide’s imprecise system for flagging and blocking suspicious transactions produced a high false positive rate. Honest users, frustrated and inconvenienced by slow service, began to complain.
解决方案
GetYourGuide decided to implement Sift, impressed with the intuitive console and innovative machine learning solution. After the initial integration, GetYourGuide turned to Gianmichele Zappia to build the risk team and manage the fraud review process. The risk team found Sift to be extremely user friendly, and quickly became adept at using the console in just a matter of days. Once comfortable with the interface, they began sending custom data fields and retraining the algorithms to identify GetYourGuide’s unique fraud challenges. Within three months of using Sift, Gianmichele and his team were able to dramatically reduce the fraud on GetYourGuide. GetYourGuide’s fraud analysts were no longer overwhelmed by endless manual review, as automation using Sift Scores increased the efficiency of their workflow. Sift’s device fingerprinting proved especially helpful, as it made it easier for Gianmichele and his team of fraud analysts to catch repeat offenders who attempted to thwart previous blocks. Once Sift began flagging transactions as bad, GetYourGuide could easily pinpoint networks of bad users who were linked to that transaction.

KeyBank's Digital Transformation with Confluent's Data in Motion
KeyBank, one of the nation's largest bank-based financial services companies, embarked on a national digital bank initiative following the acquisition of Laurel Road, a digital consumer lending business. The initiative aimed to build a digital bank focused on healthcare professionals looking to refinance student loans and buy homes. A significant challenge was reducing the time to market for new products by democratizing data and decoupling systems across the IT landscape. Like many large enterprises, KeyBank had a variety of vendor applications, custom applications, and other systems that were tightly coupled to one another. New projects often required developing specific point-to-point integrations for exchanging data, which did not address the needs of other downstream systems that could benefit from the same data.

Bank BRI: Revolutionizing Financial Inclusion in Asia with Digital Banking
Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Bank BRI), one of the largest banks in Indonesia, was faced with the challenge of increasing financial inclusion among unbanked Indonesians. The bank had an ambitious target of having 84 percent of Indonesians participating in the banking system by 2022. However, the bank's legacy technologies were proving to be a hindrance in achieving this goal. Each of the bank's products had their own public APIs, which were difficult to manage, secure, and monetize. Additionally, the process of onboarding new partners using host-to-host and VPN technology was time-consuming, taking up to six months. The bank also faced the challenge of reaching a largely rural population, with an estimated $8.3 billion in currency being held outside the banking system.

Aerospike Achieves One Million Writes Per Second on Google Compute Engine with Just 50 Nodes
Aerospike, an open-source, flash-optimized, in-memory NoSQL database, was looking to push the boundaries of Google's speed on Google Compute Engine. The challenge was to meet high throughput, consistently low latency, and real-time processing, which are characteristic of future cloud applications. The team at Aerospike was inspired by Ivan Santa Maria Filho, Performance Engineering Lead at Google, who demonstrated 1 Million Writes Per Second with Cassandra on Google Compute Engine. The goal was to benchmark Aerospike's product performance on Google Compute Engine and see if it could scale with consistently low latency, require smaller clusters, and be simpler to operate.
