Case Study: Manulife achieves faster performance and lower costs with MongoDB Atlas

Manulife boosts read performance 5.9x with MongoDB

Manulife, a major financial services and insurance company, faced challenges with its iFunds investment platform's previous cloud-based document database. The solution struggled with scalability, lacked the schema flexibility needed to adapt to rapid regulatory changes across multiple Asian markets, and could not deliver the required performance for near real-time transactions. To optimize data management, Manulife chose to migrate to MongoDB Atlas.

By implementing MongoDB Atlas, Manulife achieved significant performance improvements and cost reductions. The migration resulted in data ingestion that was 7.2 times faster, a 2.4x increase in operations per hour, and read response times that were 5.9 times faster. MongoDB also helped reduce data management costs by 3.5 times and provided robust multi-region deployments that ensured data consistency and compliance with cross-country data sovereignty laws.
