That's a good question, I was very high up in the leadership, couple levels below the CIOs and the biggest surprise for the team was that I could write even a single line of code. In large organizations, changing direction is not always easy so I could not get them off of using a data platform, which to be honest was acceptable because we could not ask the team to write such custom code for each job going forward, I did manage to shift them towards flink which I think was better suited to our actual real-time needs.
