Case Study: DoApp (mobile and web app developer) achieves global scalability, high reliability, and lower costs with Amazon Web Services

DoApp - Customer Case Study

DoApp is a Minneapolis-based mobile and web app developer behind more than 460 apps—including customizable news apps used by publishers like Gannett, the Boston Globe, and clients such as the Cleveland Browns and the U.S. Department of Defense. The company needed to control costs and IT overhead while focusing on product development and marketing, provide extremely reliable content delivery in a competitive 24/7 news market, and reach a global audience.

DoApp built its infrastructure on AWS, using CloudFront, Route 53, and SNS for fast content delivery and notifications; DynamoDB, SQS, and ElastiCache for high-throughput processing and caching; and EC2, ELB, Auto Scaling, and IAM to run and secure its advertising network. The result is lower operating costs through pay-as-you-go pricing, high reliability and availability for around-the-clock news distribution, and rapid global scalability that lets DoApp spin up new content and services in minutes.
