Empowering the future of real-time finance at scale

In an increasingly digital economy, real-time transaction processing, scalable infrastructure, and robust fraud detection are no longer optional, they’re mission-critical. This meetup brings together leaders from PayPal and Aerospike to explore the technologies, architectures, and innovations that power the modern financial ecosystem.

Join us for a discussion featuring Prabhakaran Subramanian, Sr. Technical Staff Engineer and Varun Sankar Sankar, Senior Engineering Manager from PayPal on real-time transactions at scale and fraud prevention.

Whether you're an engineer, architect, or data enthusiast, you’ll learn how you can:

• Build ultra-low-latency systems
• Detect fraud in milliseconds, and scale from TB to PB without compromise
• Drive new ideas for the future of secure, real-time digital transactions

You’ll also be able to take aim at the giant outfield targets at Topgolf to see if you’re an ace. Of course hackers, welcome and we’ll have food and drink for the proverbial 19th hole!

How PayPal’s efficiency improvements solved their scalability issues while achieving 5 9’s for fraud prevention

Speakers: Prabhakaran Subramanian, Sr. Technical Staff Engineer and Varun Sankar Sankar, Senior Engineering Manager

PayPal is the world’s largest online money transfer, billing and payments system. They have developed a sophisticated, real-time fraud prevention system that combines advanced machine learning with graph-based analytics to detect and mitigate fraudulent activities at scale. But none of this matters if it’s not highly available and can scale cost-effectively to handle new users, new fraud schemes, and new sources of data. Come hear how their approach has helped PayPal become an industry leader in fraud mitigation infrastructure efficiency and reliability.
