Data on a massive scale is at the “heart” of Unity. It is data that allows our developers to critique and improve their games, and it is data that allows our developers to monetize all their hard work. 

Our Data Platform Team empowers customers internal and external through data - data about the games and the hundreds of millions of people who play them. Our team aims to provide a highly scalable data collection and processing system, track relevant metadata and statistics, and provide multiple consumption modes tailored to customer use cases.
