CASE STUDY
Implementing specialist Quantexa engineering expertise.
Chris’ client were struggling with their data migration and scalability. Find out how he helped them to get back on track.
Chris was placed with a market-leading data management services and data analytics consultancy. He is supporting one of their clients, a major UK bank, to provide specialist Quantexa engineering support.
The Challenge
The client had the following challenges:
- Migration to Cloud Scalability
Transitioning from on-premise PoC to cloud for a million customers posed a significant engineering challenge.
- Tech Integration Complexity
Integrating diverse technologies in the KYC pipeline led to gaps in addressing challenges.
- Dynamic Platform Configuration
Adapting Quantexa platform to changing cloud setups and business needs required expertise across multiple technologies, fulfilled by Chris.
The Solution
Seamless Cross-Team Issue Resolution and Strategic Planning
Chris connected the dots between different engineering teams to identify issues that had been missed and implement a rigorous plan to overcome these issues.
Optimised Configuration Automation
He then developed an improved process for managing the configuration of the Quantexa component. This required monitoring application health and automating authentication management.
Component Alignment and Effective Communication
Gained an overall picture of where the components connected and ensuring that all technical requirements were communicated effectively between these teams.
The Outcome
1. Lost Time Recuperated
The migration process was falling behind schedule when Chris joined but was brought back up to speed and live proving of the pipeline commenced on time.
2. Streamlined Authentication
A more streamlined configuration system for the Quantexa platform deployed via Kubernetes provided automated connection and authentication with Elasticsearch and Apache Kafka.
3. Reduced Siloes
Teams involved in the project have a better understanding of where their work connects to work of other teams, reducing siloes.
“Chris’ ability to bridge the gaps between different engineering teams and technologies ensured that our complex Quantexa-based KYC pipeline scaled seamlessly to serve over a million customers. His expertise in Quantexa, AWS, and diverse pipeline technologies proved invaluable, making him an indispensable asset to our success.”

Chris Quantexa EngineerFor this project, it was vital to rapidly get up to speed on a wide range of technologies, how they were intended to be integrated by the client and who was responsible. I couldn’t have done this without the Xander Academy providing me with a strong technical and consulting foundation and teaching me how to learn more efficiently, and other Xander consultants with such a wide range of expertise to draw from.”In his words
