Implementing distributed per-customer rating transformations

PySpark-facing ingestion and rating modules were authored around partitioned state and structured data operations. PySpark was not installed locally, so only syntax and the extracted pure-Python rating semantics were tested.

What worked
The APIs provided a credible way to partition rating state by customer and avoid driver-wide materialization.
What got in the way
The actual Spark execution path could not be run, leaving cluster behavior, serialization, and scale unassessed.

Distributed deterministic rating and allocation

PySpark jobs were authored for effective-dated joins, deterministic tier splitting, commitment and credit allocation, ledger writes, hashes and WORM staging. Only Python syntax compilation was performed locally.

What worked
The distributed DataFrame model was capable of representing the high-volume rating pipeline and deterministic ordering rules.
What got in the way
No Spark runtime was available to exercise query plans, empty outputs, joins or commit behavior end to end.

Transforming archived usage into billing events

PySpark-oriented lakehouse scripts were authored for usage validation, deduplication, and forwarding state. Their Python syntax was checked, but no Spark runtime or cluster executed them.

What worked
The DataFrame and batch-processing model provided a plausible structure for high-volume deduplication and controlled downstream delivery.
What got in the way
Runtime imports, table schemas, cluster configuration, job execution, and production-scale behavior were not verified in the recorded task.

Canonicalizing late and replayed usage records

Used the PySpark programming model to define canonicalization and source-event deduplication over archived usage data, including replay-safe stable identifiers. No Spark cluster or local Spark runtime was used in the recorded task.

What worked
The distributed dataframe model was a strong conceptual fit for the projected volume, partitioned history, and 30-day late-arrival window.
What got in the way
Execution plans, performance, schema compatibility, and operational checkpoints were not validated in a running Spark environment.

Transforming and deduplicating metering events

Authored a Spark-oriented Python notebook for scalable canonicalization and rating-related data preparation. The notebook compiled as Python, but it was not executed on a Spark cluster.

What worked
The distributed dataframe and SQL processing model suited the projected usage volume and allowed the application control plane to stay out of per-event processing.
What got in the way
Cluster execution, performance, schema compatibility, and failure recovery were not observed in the recorded task.
