Examples

Explore how we've transformed challenges into opportunities through innovative solutions. These examples highlight our approach and the significant improvements we’ve achieved for our customers.

Merging of Large Data Files

Challenge: Users needed to merge approximately 150MB of XML/CSV files into a single, efficient file.

Solutions:

  • Team 1 (XML & XQuery): Required loading all files into memory, resulting in a 24-hour processing time.
  • Team 2 (CSV & LINQ): Improved speed but still limited by memory, taking 12 hours.
  • Our Team (Dictionaries & Hashsets): Optimized for performance, our solution processed data in just 52 seconds without exceeding 145MB of memory.

Result: Our method drastically reduced the processing time and memory usage, providing a scalable and efficient solution.

Mobile Application with 130,000 Offline Records

Challenge: Users required a mobile dashboard to access and drill down into 130,000 offline data records.

Solutions:

  • Initial Approach (RESTful APIs & SQLite): Took 30 minutes to refresh and 45 seconds to load dashboard data.
  • Our Solution (Streamed API & File Storage): Reduced data refresh to 20 seconds and dashboard load time to 2 seconds by optimizing data handling and storage.

Result: Enhanced user experience with significantly faster data processing and reduced startup time.

Uploading & Processing of Data Files

Challenge: Users needed to upload and process 35MB Excel files monthly, with a focus on aggregated results.

Solutions:

  • Initial Approach (Direct Database Insertion): Slowed by bulk data processing and high costs during peak times.
  • Our Solution (Blob Storage & Worker Services): Offloaded data processing to a scalable worker service cluster, reducing costs and improving efficiency.

Result: Our approach minimized database load, optimized cost, and improved processing speed.

Simulation Queueing Manager

Challenge: Users needed an efficient system to manage and run millions of simulations yearly on an HPC cluster.

Solutions:

  • Initial Approach (Complex UI & API): Encountered performance issues with 30-second UI startup and 14-second per simulation submission.
  • Our Solution (UI & API Optimization): Simplified UI and enabled batch submissions, drastically reducing startup and processing times.

Result: Enhanced performance and user satisfaction, saving the program from termination.
