Case Study: TicketFire achieves faster deployment and greater AWS visibility with Blue Matador

TicketFire boosts deployments from monthly to 8-9 per day with Blue Matador

TicketFire, a digitization platform and online ticket marketplace, faced slow development cycles and infrequent production deployments due to a lack of adequate system monitoring. Their previous use of CloudWatch Alarms resulted in missed outages and made their team hesitant to deploy code more than once a month. To fuel strategic growth, Director of Technology Tony Santucci needed an automated monitoring solution from a vendor like Blue Matador that would provide confidence without causing alert fatigue.

Blue Matador's automated AWS monitoring solution was implemented, requiring no manual setup for new resources. This provided full coverage and proactive alerts, allowing the TicketFire team to identify potential issues in development before they reached production. As a result, Blue Matador enabled TicketFire to drastically increase its speed to market, moving from one monthly deployment to many production deployments per day. The team also gained greater confidence in their system's health and saved significant time by avoiding the manual configuration typical of traditional monitoring tools.
