a global streaming platform scales 3x traffic with MinIO AIStor

The customer, a global streaming platform, faced challenges scaling its on-premises content delivery infrastructure due to metadata bottlenecks, performance issues, and hardware reliability problems with its legacy object storage system. They selected MinIO's AIStor platform to build a next-generation storage solution that could handle petabytes of live and on-demand video with minimal latency.

MinIO implemented its AIStor platform across 10+ global data centers, utilizing multi-tier architecture and purpose-built clusters for different workflows. The solution enabled the streaming platform to handle a 3x traffic spike without degradation, reduce cluster deployment time by 75%, and achieve egress speeds of 150-200Gbps. This migration eliminated performance bottlenecks and accelerated the company's international expansion.
