Case Study: Medical Care Provider Network achieves 80% storage reduction and cuts alerts from hundreds daily to a few weekly with DatAvail

Medical Care Provider Network Company - Customer Case Study

Medical Care Provider Network Company, a large medical services network and one of the world’s largest MongoDB users, was operating six MongoDB environments (three sharded and three replica sets) and was overwhelmed by hundreds of daily alerts — a problem that drove their sole remaining DBA to leave. The organization engaged DatAvail to diagnose and stabilize their environment, including work with MongoDB and related infrastructure.

DatAvail performed a full architecture assessment, recommended hardware and software changes, migrated 12 TB from SQL Server to MongoDB, consolidated databases, replaced the storage engine, integrated drivers, and upgraded everything to MongoDB 3.2, plus implemented best practices and a custom Python backup script with minimal downtime. As a result, DatAvail reduced alerts from hundreds per day to just a few per week, cut storage use by 80%, and delivered a dramatically improved, higher-capacity database operation.
