| HackerEarth | Legacy | HackerEarth Platform | Employee Engagement | HCM | n/a | 2016 | 2016 |
In 2016, DreamWorks Animation ran the HackerEarth Platform to host a coding challenge used in its recruitment and talent development workflow. The implementation leveraged hackathon and coding challenge capabilities within the Employee Engagement category to engage and evaluate candidates.
The DreamWorks Animation Challenge functioned as a pre selection and training pipeline for the studio's Effects Challenge program, supporting recruitment, skills development and engagement of candidates who progressed to a multi month training program in India. Operational ownership was with HR and talent development teams, and the deployment was focused on campus recruitment and internal talent programs as a staged selection funnel.
Configuration centered on the HackerEarth Platform's hackathon and coding challenge modules, configured to present timed problem sets, automate coding evaluation, and manage candidate progression through staged assessments. The platform provisioned candidate workflows from application through selection, enabling score based qualification for entry into the Effects Challenge training and supporting standard campus recruitment processes such as skills assessment and cohort selection.
Governance integrated the HackerEarth Platform into existing HR selection workflows, with recruitment accountable for pre selection and talent development managing progression into the multi month training program. The event based rollout demonstrates how a hackathon style deployment within Employee Engagement tooling can operationalize pre selection and skills development for studio recruiting and talent pipelines.

| ActiveIQ | Legacy | ActiveIQ CDP | Customer Data Platform | CRM | n/a | 2019 | 2019 |
In 2019, DreamWorks Animation deployed ActiveIQ CDP as a Customer Data Platform to centralize and manage production and creative data used across film projects. The ActiveIQ CDP implementation was positioned to address DreamWorks Animation's petabyte scale storage and the management of more than 500 million digital files that support multi-year animated feature production pipelines.
The ActiveIQ CDP deployment focused on standard Customer Data Platform capabilities, including unified data profile consolidation, event and asset indexing, real-time data orchestration, and analytics-ready data streams to support artists and pipeline automation. Configuration emphasized data lifecycle management and versioning workflows to preserve individual file provenance and enable interactive artist revision tracking across long-running production cycles.
The application was deployed alongside an extensive NetApp infrastructure that includes Clustered ONTAP, AFF A700 systems, FAS9000 platforms, StorageGRID, and Active IQ Unified Manager, providing underlying storage performance and operational telemetry. Operational coverage spanned creative, production, and platform engineering teams, enabling data accessibility for rendering, asset management, and postproduction services without introducing named third party integrations beyond the studio's existing NetApp stack.
Governance was organized around a small central support team that supervised the combined storage and platform environment, with configuration controls for access, versioning, and data retention tied into production workflows. The studio retained strict operational change procedures, demonstrated by adding capacity and conducting an all flash upgrade in production without disrupting users, which validated the governance and rollout approach.
Outcomes recorded in the environment include sustained 100% uptime supported by Clustered ONTAP, reduced latency after the all flash upgrade, and more efficient data center power and cooling usage, all of which supported reduced artist wait time and continuous production scheduling. ActiveIQ CDP at DreamWorks Animation functioned as the Customer Data Platform component within a broader NetApp-driven data factory, aligning creative production, platform services, and studio governance around a single data management posture.
