A Cloud 66 Case Study
Sembly is an EdTech audience response platform for colleges, universities, and conferences that set out to improve presenter-audience communication. The startup struggled with slow, costly, and low-control hosting on Heroku and then with the time demands of managing its own DigitalOcean VPS infrastructure, so it turned to Cloud 66 for Rails to better manage its API and application deployment.
With Cloud 66, Sembly migrated quickly to a managed setup on DigitalOcean, with deployments running smoothly within minutes and continuing reliably for years. Cloud 66 handled frequent timetable syncing through cron jobs, MySQL binary backups, and easy scaling, helping Sembly support rapid growth of over 100 new signups per day while keeping the platform stable and flexible.
