Case Study: Hivebrite achieves scalable global community management with Google Cloud and Looker Studio

Hivebrite Giving online communities the tools to stay connected, engaged, and supported

Hivebrite, a French community management platform, needed to better handle rapid growth, peak traffic, and strict security and data-localization requirements as it expanded to serve communities of more than a million users. The company also wanted faster development cycles and easier management of multiple environments, while continuing to support features like alumni engagement, fundraising, and large-scale communications.

Looker helped Hivebrite by supporting its move to Google Cloud and Google Kubernetes Engine, enabling a more scalable, secure, and uniform infrastructure. The results included contacting 100,000 members in under an hour instead of several hours, onboarding DevOps hires three times faster, creating new environments in minutes rather than days, and making donation processing 10x faster; in one example, Notre Dame University raised 30% more during a giving campaign.
