Überblick

The challenge

Iyzico’s technology includes hundreds of security filters, blacklists, and AI-powered fraud detection algorithms to identify suspicious transactions. But protecting customers without decreasing conversion rates requires predictions to return an answer in 50 ms — and a rise in customers and transactions was stretching the Community Edition.


The solution

Iyzico chose Exasol’s Enterprise Cluster Edition over Hadoop and Oracle due to fast query running times, easy installation, and Tableau integration. “Exasol’s performance and easy installation convinced us. Hadoop took considerably longer to deliver extensive analyses as their system is based on batch processing. Oracle offered great process integration but didn’t match our expected cost-performance ratio…. Our platform’s high performance relies on in-memory technology using the main storage as an amplifying cache.”


“We had a fully functioning, future-proofed solution within a month.... Our data team is small and relies on the fast delivery of results.”
