Case Study: Kronoshop achieves faster ecommerce innovation with Looker

Kronoshop Breaking new ground without breaking the bank

Kronoshop, an Italian online retailer of watches and jewelry, needed a flexible, cost-effective way to support rapid experimentation and growth for its ecommerce platform, which features more than 15,000 items and attracts 2 million visits a year. Working with Looker’s broader Google Cloud ecosystem support, Kronoshop used Google Compute Engine and related cloud services to build its platform from scratch with the help of ICOA.

The solution let Kronoshop launch and test new ideas quickly, limit financial risk with pay-as-you-go infrastructure, and track feature impact in detail. As a result, the company could spin up and shut down instances in minutes, publish three ecommerce platforms in a week, and grow fast enough that its platform was later acquired by Morellato Group and reused across other brands.
