The journey toward a self-service data platform at Netflix
The Netflix data platform is a massive-scale, cloud-only suite of tools and technologies. It includes big data tech (Spark and Flink), enabling services (federated metadata management), and machine learning support. But with power comes complexity. Kurt Brown explains how Netflix is working toward an easier, "self-service" data platform without sacrificing any enabling capabilities.

The Netflix data platform is a massive-scale, cloud-only suite of tools and technologies. It includes big data tech (Spark, Flink, Presto, and Druid), enabling services (federated metadata management and data event triggering), and machine learning support (end-to-end ML workflow infrastructure with notebook integration). But with power comes complexity. Kurt Brown explains how Netflix is working toward an easier, “self-service” data platform without sacrificing any enabling capabilities, diving into the philosophy, tactics, and technologies behind this transition.
