Slides: https://www.slideshare.net/DataStax/real-world-use-case-with-cassandra-eddie-satterly-datanexus-c-summit-2016 | Discuss how IAG, Australia's leading Insurance company, uses Cassandra to change the way they integrate and leverage their data. First use case is in moving from Silos of data to enabling near real time analytics on critical digital application data leveraging kafka for data flows to Cassandra. Then leveraging Solr and Spark nodes to enable real time search and analytics. Second use case is in collecting new telemetry and telematics data to enable real time feedback to customers that initially shows 7-20% fuel savings for gas vehicles. This will also help customers to avoid heavy accident risk areas of cities during peak times and eventually suggest alternate routes and commute timing to reduce risk.
