Get to Know the Team
The Streaming Data team (aka "Coban") strives to enable seamless and secure real-time access to the continuous events or "streams", serving as Grab's unified, common access pattern for real-time data. We build the platform for writing, consuming, enriching and retrieving real-time data, and provide a cost-effective, fully managed "NoOps" service for all product teams to leverage.

Get to know the team
The functional areas this team covers are streaming (Kafka/AutoMQ), in-house streaming SDK, stream processing framework (Flink, Flink SQL, Kafka Connect), Change Data Capture, stream exploration (Zeppelin, Flink SQL Gateway), as well as an in-house control plane for tenancy and resource management.

Our customers are engineers, analysts, and data scientists at Grab (across all verticals like Transport, Deliveries, Geo, Ads, and various Fintech verticals), who leverage realtime data for state machines, pub/sub architectures, insights and reporting, forecasting and anomaly detection, as well as online feature engineering. The team is responsible for mission critical systems and clusters that ingest and process 10s of TB of data every hour and make streaming data simple, convenient and reliabily for engineers across Grab to use.
