Case Study: Pixel Federation boosts data warehouse performance with Labyrinth Labs on AWS

Pixel Federation boosts data warehouse performance 60% with Labyrinth Labs

Pixel Federation, a leading Slovak mobile gaming company, faced significant challenges with its on-premise data warehouse, which was built on Hadoop and Apache Spark. The legacy infrastructure suffered from limited automation, severe scaling constraints, and a high operational overhead that diverted engineering resources. To modernize its data analytics capabilities, Pixel Federation partnered with Labyrinth Labs to migrate to a cloud-native architecture on AWS.

Labyrinth Labs implemented a solution using Amazon EKS, Apache Spark, Apache Airflow, and Amazon S3, accelerated by their proprietary LARA platform. The migration resulted in a 60% performance improvement and substantially reduced operational overhead. Further optimizations, including a move to WarpStream for streaming and a migration to AWS Graviton processors, delivered substantial cost savings and a 20-40% better price-performance ratio for the customer.
