Austroads recently commenced a migration of legacy telematics data workloads to Databricks, transforming data infrastructure. We explore how the move to Databricks has enabled overcoming challenges of handling vast & varied data across transport networks. Leveraging Databricks' scalability & modern data platform we have significantly improved data processing & enabled real-time insights into vehicle movements, traffic patterns, & opened the potential for advanced analytics, & machine learning capabilities. The migration has also fostered better collaboration across teams, reduced costs, & positioned us to adapt to future transport technologies. This session will provide valuable insights into the benefits of modernising data platforms, offering actionable takeaways for data professionals & transport industry stakeholders alike. Discover how Austroads is driving the future of Australian transport with Databricks, transforming data into a powerful tool for progress.
