Case Study: Pivotree achieves record holiday sales scalability with FlashGrid Oracle RAC on AWS

FlashGrid Delivers Oracle RAC on AWS to Support Record Holiday Sales for a Global Retailer

Pivotree was leading a digital transformation project for a global retailer that required migrating an on-premises Oracle ATG Commerce with Oracle RAC system to AWS. The challenge was to achieve better scalability for their e-commerce platform to handle the surges in traffic expected during the holiday season. FlashGrid provided an assessment and sizing for this deployment.

Using FlashGrid Launcher, Pivotree configured and deployed a highly available Oracle RAC cluster on AWS with storage facilitated by the FlashGrid Storage Fabric. The solution successfully supported a record-breaking 5x growth in peak user sessions during Black Friday with zero downtime and highly responsive performance. This robust performance helped the customer achieve a substantial revenue increase compared to the previous year.
