Our client has started a greenfield project to build an in-house data lake solution, named Origin. This will serve various BI services and projects as well as other Data Science tools and initiatives within CIB. Origin will ingest near real-time market data from multiple sources and centrally store them on the cloud (AWS). The scope and type of the data consumed, and target consumers will continue to expand.

Currently, the existing functionality includes the following:

- Ingestion of multiple data sources in batch / near real-time in a shared storage.
- Decoupled storage from compute and data processing to provide increased scalability and performance while reducing storage costs.
- The data is compressed and partitioned using parquet data formats, which improves performance while reducing the cost of data retrieval.
- Centralized metadata catalogue that maintains a single view of the data model for all its consumers.
- Integration with other AWS services (Athena, EMR, QuickSight) and third-party solutions (Apache Spark, Presto, Tableau).

Working in a small development team, the focus will be on delivering high-quality solutions for electronic trading and pricing workflows.
