Case Study: Equifax achieves 90% cost savings and simpler global analytics with ChaosSearch

Equifax Simplifies Cloud Operations Management Globally with Cloud Data Platform

Equifax, a global financial services company, needed a secure and scalable way to manage operational analytics across its multi-cloud environment. Its engineering, security, compliance, and customer service teams were struggling with siloed logging deployments, rising costs, and slow access to data for troubleshooting and reporting, so it turned to ChaosSearch and its Cloud Data Platform.

With ChaosSearch, Equifax centralized log analytics on cloud object storage across Amazon S3 and Google Cloud Storage, using a fully managed SaaS platform with fast search, SQL, Kibana dashboards, and role-based access controls. The result was a single analytics access layer, no need for data movement or transformation, and roughly 50 TB ingested per day, along with a 90% cost reduction versus its previous providers.
