Case Study: Lili accelerates PostgreSQL and MySQL performance with Aiven's EverSQL

How Aiven Helps Lili to Expand and Keep Impressing Customers

Lili, a fast-growing business banking and accounting platform, needed to keep its database performance high as its usage and transaction volume grew quickly. With customers expecting instant access to balances, transactions, and card approvals, the team faced the challenge of preventing slow queries and performance issues before they affected the user experience. Lili used Aiven’s EverSQL by Aiven for PostgreSQL and MySQL optimization.

Aiven’s EverSQL automatically analyzed and optimized SQL queries, rewrote and indexed them, and gave Lili’s developers performance insights before deployment. This helped the team catch issues early, reduced the need for a dedicated DBA, and saved significant developer time. According to Lili’s CTO, developers were independently solving problems in about 95% of cases, and the solution also gave him “a good night’s sleep” by reducing stress around database performance.
