The BBDS (Bloomberg Big Data Services) platform powers this scale with distributed systems built on Apache Kafka, MySql, Vitess, Apache Solr, and other cutting-edge technologies. We use clusters that index and serve millions of documents daily, making financial data easily discoverable across the firm. Our Team The DataHub Engineering team provides a distributed platform for hosting datasets, complete with managed data stores, search, discovery, lakehouse, and real-time stream processing capabilities. The platform offers a single place within Bloomberg to discover, access, publish, and subscribe to data.

The DataHub’s Search and Discovery Infrastructure, built on Apache Solr, powers the discoverability of those datasets, making Bloomberg’s financial data easy to search, index, and explore.
