Case Study: Comparethemarket achieves 2x faster app delivery with MongoDB

Comparethemarket - Customer Case Study

Comparethemarket, a leading UK price comparison service, needed a database that could scale with growing traffic and help teams deliver new features faster. After running into performance and agility limits with Microsoft SQL Server, the company chose MongoDB for its microservices-based applications and real-time customer experience needs.

MongoDB implemented as Comparethemarket’s operational database across on-premises and AWS environments, with Ops Manager for automation, backups, and zero-downtime upgrades. The results were significant: new applications and features could be brought to market 2x faster, a major project that would have taken at least six months on a relational database was delivered in three months, and the team was able to deploy new features up to eight times per week with improved uptime and recovery.
