Outcome
Near real-time analytics on large-scale research datasets
Proprietary / internal project
Overview
Kompass gives research teams at a prominent Middle Eastern education and research foundation a single dashboard to discover, track, and analyse patent and research activity across their portfolio, backed by a tuned Elasticsearch layer for fast discovery at scale.
Problem
Researchers needed a fast way to surface relevant patents and research trends from a rapidly growing dataset, without waiting on slow, manually-run reports.
Features
- LinkedIn and Google SSO for frictionless institutional access
- Automated, scheduled dashboards for research leads
- Elasticsearch-powered discovery across large patent datasets
- Database performance tuning for near real-time data projections
Key Learnings
- Query and index design matter more than raw hardware once datasets cross a certain scale.
- SSO integration across institutional identity providers has more edge cases than the docs suggest.
