Case Study | Catapult
About Catapult
Starting out as a pure events company 21 years ago, Catapult has developed, expanded and transformed into a full service international creative production agency.
Since beginning in Ireland in 1999, they have grown to design and produce multiple live, virtual and hybrid events around the world from their offices in Dublin, New York and Los Angeles. They offer services across strategy, ideation, design, production and execution.
Challenge
Catapult had reached out to HST for a pressing data integration project.
They were hosting an event for the UN (United nations) and had to pull data from multiple 3rd party sources including the UN database, The scope of the project was to create a data pipeline which could ingest data from multiple sources, perform an ETL (extract, transform, load) function, enrich data with the required properties and then store it to a data warehouse which could then be consumed via other applications by an API driven service architecture. The project had strict data security and data governance requirements.
Solution
From the start it was clear such an ambitious idea required a non-trivial synergy of innovative development practices and a strong blend of technical artistry, after several discussions with stakeholders, HST Solutions adopted a systematic and agile approach to address the client’s challenges. We worked closely with Catapult, stakeholders from the UN and other 3rd party consumers of data such as Hopin to write and end to end Zero touch automated solution. The below diagram explains a high level solution architecture and final deliverables.
