A Google Cloud Platform Case Study
Sertis Corp., a Bangkok-based data science and big‑data consultancy founded in 2014, runs the Datana platform to help clients ingest, prepare, model and analyze data via a simple web interface. As customer use grew, its original public cloud setup became prohibitively expensive and cost‑control workarounds created daytime bottlenecks and degraded performance.
Sertis migrated Datana to Google Cloud Platform (using Compute Engine, Cloud Storage and Firebase, plus short‑lived preemptible VMs) and completed the move with internal resources. The switch cut platform costs by 50%, sped large‑volume transfers between instances by about 65%, delivered reports roughly 20% faster, enabled 24/7 operation (freeing ~10% of monitoring time) and improved overall customer service, with roughly 90% of processing now running on GCP.
