Case Study: Helthjem achieves scalable, reliable delivery operations with Aiven for PostgreSQL

Helthjem Keeps Deliveries Running with Aiven

Helthjem, one of Norway's largest delivery services, faced the challenge of managing its rapidly growing, data-intensive operations with a small engineering team. The company relied on PostgreSQL databases to power its entire business, from orders to tracking, but the burden of in-house management was taking up too much time and resources, threatening scalability and stability during peak periods like holidays.

By migrating to Aiven for PostgreSQL on AWS, Helthjem achieved a completely pain-free transition and a highly stable, scalable database solution. The results were immediate; the system now seamlessly handles over a million events per day during busy holidays and supports a database with over 350 million records. This partnership with Aiven provided the performance and peace of mind that allows Helthjem's team to focus on innovation and supports the company's confident expansion, including a new distribution center capable of handling 40 million parcels a year.
