A summary of sessions at the first DataEngineering Open Forum at Netflix on April 18th, 2024 The DataEngineering Open Forum at Netflix on April 18th, 2024. At Netflix, we aspire to entertain the world, and our dataengineering teams play a crucial role in this mission by enabling data-driven decision-making at scale.
They’re still analysts at heart but, similar to dataengineers, they have a deep understanding of data warehouse capabilities and are pros at data processing optimization and performance tuning.
We adopted the following mission statement to guide our investments: “Provide a complete and accurate data lineage system enabling decision-makers to win moments of truth.” Nonetheless, Netflix data landscape (see below) is complex and many teams collaborate effectively for sharing the responsibility of our data system management.
As Big data and ML became more prevalent and impactful, the scalability, reliability, and usability of the orchestrating ecosystem have increasingly become more important for our data scientists and the company. Another dimension of scalability to consider is the size of the workflow.
Some of the optimizations are prerequisites for a high-performance data warehouse. Sometimes DataEngineers write downstream ETLs on ingested data to optimize the data/metadata layouts to make other ETL processes cheaper and faster. Orient: Gather tuning parameters for a particular table that changed.
Whether in analyzing A/B tests, optimizing studio production, training algorithms, investing in content acquisition, detecting security breaches, or optimizing payments, well structured and accurate data is foundational. Users configure the workflow to read the data in a window (e.g. data arrives too late to be useful).

Unfortunately, building data pipelines remains a daunting, time-consuming, and costly activity. Not everyone is operating at Netflix or Spotify scale dataengineering function. Often companies underestimate the necessary effort and cost involved to build and maintain data pipelines.
He specifically delved into Venice DB, the NoSQL data store used for feature persistence. At the QCon London 2024 conference, Félix GV from LinkedIn discussed the AI/ML platform powering the company’s products. By Rafal Gancarz
