Case Study: Goldbelly achieves 19% Snowflake cost savings with Espresso AI

Saving Goldbelly 19% One of the highest ROI cost saving initiatives we've had

Goldbelly, a curated online marketplace for gourmet food, saw its Snowflake data warehouse costs skyrocket as the company experienced rapid growth. The data team needed to find a way to improve efficiency and reduce these operational costs without disrupting their critical, customer-facing workloads. They turned to Espresso AI for a solution using its optimization service.

Espresso AI implemented its autoscaling and scheduling agents in a fast, risk-free trial that required minimal effort from Goldbelly. The solution delivered immediate results, validating Espresso AI's initial projection by reducing Goldbelly's six-figure Snowflake bill by 19%. This provided significant cost savings and operational efficiency, allowing the engineering team to reallocate their time to higher-value work.
