Case Study: International Entertainment Providing Company achieves server consolidation and cost savings with Datavail

International Entertainment Providing Company - Customer Case Study

DatAvail helped the International Entertainment Providing Company, a multinational content provider of television, motion pictures and video‑on‑demand, address growing operational complexity and security concerns. The customer was running three production and three development environments on different software versions (including end‑of‑life MongoDB 2.6), had many underutilized servers, rising alerts and brittle performance, and needed a secure, supportable platform and reduced costs.

DatAvail assessed the environment and recommended consolidating environments, strengthening security to MongoDB best practices, and upgrading MongoDB from 2.6 to 3.2.9 (via 3.0). DatAvail executed the upgrade and provided ongoing MongoDB/MySQL DBA services (installation, monitoring, backup, tuning and support), which allowed decommissioning underutilized servers, cutting Enterprise Edition licensing and operational expenses, causing alerts and problems to plummet and enabling real‑time BI from user and social data to drive marketing, increase viewership and improve the bottom line.
