Case Study: Xceleration achieves elastic cloud capacity and enhanced security with Flexential

Xceleration Experiences Exponential Growth in the Cloud

Xceleration, a provider of employee and customer incentive programs powered by its RewardStation® site, faced recurring capacity and security problems as popular program launches triggered large, short-term traffic spikes. Relying on costly in‑house servers plus a data host that couldn’t meet stringent SLAs left Xceleration’s IT team spending valuable time on security and capacity management instead of product innovation.

Xceleration moved additional capacity to Peak 10, adopting tailored managed intrusion detection and a shared cloud environment that allowed Peak 10 to rapidly double CPU and memory during launches. The change delivered elastic, cost‑effective scalability and stronger security, enabling faster program rollouts, new customer wins, reclaimed staff time for innovation, and plans to migrate to a private enterprise cloud with additional managed services.
