Case Study: Jodel achieves 50% cost reduction and high-performance, elastic infrastructure with Leaseweb Dedicated Servers

Jodel - Customer Case Study

Jodel is a Berlin-based social media startup that lets millions of users anonymously share location-based messages, photos and videos. As they scaled, the team found public cloud costs were spiraling and needed a more cost-effective, high-performance and elastic infrastructure to handle unpredictable global traffic and extreme-speed data movement.

Leaseweb migrated Jodel to high-performance Dedicated Servers with extra-fast NVMe SSDs, plus Leaseweb CDN and network services, and kept reserved on-demand capacity to simulate cloud-like elasticity. The change cut infrastructure costs by over 50%, improved IOPS, latency and throughput, enabled rapid feature rollouts (eg. video and ads), and gave Jodel the performance and runway to continue expanding while keeping selective cloud use for testing and managed services.
