Case Study: Shopper Approved gains proactive AWS monitoring and alerting with Blue Matador

Setting Up Alerts And Notifications With Ease After Migrating To Aws

Shopper Approved, a fast-growing provider of reviews and ratings management for more than 7,000 clients, faced a stressful emergency migration from dedicated servers to AWS and needed a faster way to set up monitoring and alerting. With a lean engineering team and limited AWS expertise, they didn’t have time to spend weeks configuring CloudWatch or building alerts from scratch.

Blue Matador provided out-of-the-box monitoring and alerting for Shopper Approved’s AWS environment, including instant coverage for services like ECS and ELB with no meaningful configuration required. As a result, the team moved from reacting to customer-reported issues to proactively identifying problems, gained better troubleshooting insight into unfamiliar AWS services, and avoided the time sink of traditional monitoring setup. Blue Matador also gave the team confidence during their move to a container-based platform and peace of mind during critical moments away from work.
