Interview Prompt

Our e-commerce site generates 600 million clickstream events per day through Kafka. Analytics needs this data for user behavior analysis, funnel conversion, and A/B test evaluation, and retention policy requires two years of history. Design the storage and ingestion pipeline.

Summary

Every click, every aisle, every day for two years.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Draw your pipeline on the design canvas: sources, transforms, storage and checks
  4. Answer the interviewer's follow-up questions, then get a hire or no-hire decision
