Case Study: Bitdefender achieves near-zero downtime and rapid global scalability with Amazon Web Services

Bitdefender - Customer Case Study

Bitdefender, a Romania-founded internet security firm whose technologies protect 500 million users worldwide, needed to move its GravityZone enterprise product away from physical infrastructure so developers could innovate faster. The company faced challenges around manual processes, rapid and unpredictable scaling for millions of endpoints, and the need for global high availability to meet service-level agreements.

Bitdefender built GravityZone on AWS—using EC2, Elastic Load Balancing, IAM, CloudWatch, VPC, and AWS Support—to enable automation, instant provisioning, and regional redundancy. The result: near-zero downtime over five years, the ability to onboard 10,000 endpoints in minutes and scale toward millions overnight, lower upfront costs with predictable OPEX, and faster innovation and delivery of secure services worldwide.
