Instacart Is a Platform for Grocers

The original system that we had built with elastic search as the heart of our data architecture, or intr structure. Instacart is a platform for hundreds of different grocers throughout the country and has tens of thousands of stores all that have different inventory. And so everything in inscart is built from the product, from the machine learning. It can't be an off line, 24 hour batch job that we get around to eventually. So i think that that is a really challenging technology problem,. It's really challenging business and product problem as well.
