A Amazon Web Services Case Study
MAGASeek Corporation is a Japan‑based fashion e‑commerce operator and e‑commerce solutions provider that runs sites for 2,000 brands. Facing an aging on‑premises infrastructure, expiring OS and middleware support, and the need to build and launch new, competitive e‑commerce sites faster (while handling large seasonal traffic spikes), the IT team struggled with lengthy build times, costly upgrades, and peak‑load performance constraints.
MAGASeek migrated its Oracle RAC environment to Amazon Aurora on AWS using AWS Database Migration Service, completing the move with a smaller team and minimal disruption. The switch improved scalability and administration, cut some tasks from 10 to 7 minutes and reduced certain batch jobs to under a minute (with some jobs tripling in performance), increased request throughput to ~1,200 rps, eliminated special preparations for sales peaks, and freed engineers to focus on innovation.
