Case Study: Oden Technologies cuts infrastructure costs 30% and optimizes factory production with Google Cloud Platform

Oden Technologies Optimizing production on the factory floor

Oden Technologies provides a cloud-based IoT platform that combines industrial hardware, wireless connectivity, and big-data analytics to help manufacturers monitor and optimize production. Facing rapid growth in sensor data and the need for scalable, cost‑effective analytics, Oden found its previous cloud setup required too many virtual machines and higher storage/analytics costs, limiting performance and adding complexity.

Oden migrated its platform to Google Cloud (Compute Engine, Pub/Sub, Bigtable, Kubernetes Engine, Stackdriver), enabling real‑time processing of roughly 10 million metrics per line per day and interactive factory dashboards. The move cut VM instances from 80 to 45 (a 44% reduction), lowered storage and analytics costs by 30%, sped troubleshooting from months to minutes, and helped customers reduce waste and improve profitability.
