Case Study: Pathao achieves scalable super-app growth with MongoDB Atlas

Pathao powers 10 million downloads with MongoDB

Pathao, a fast-growing Bangladeshi super-app offering ridesharing and food delivery, faced a major challenge when its popularity surged. Its original monolithic infrastructure could not handle the rapid growth, leading to frequent outages and a poor customer experience. To support its evolving business model and new microservices architecture, Pathao needed a robust, scalable, and flexible database solution, which led them to vendor MongoDB.

Pathao implemented MongoDB Atlas on Google Cloud to gain the flexibility and scalability required for its microservices. The solution provided automated monitoring, auto-scaling, and real-time visibility, which greatly reduced the engineering burden. As a result, Pathao eliminated outages, effortlessly scales to meet demand, and can now confidently prototype and deploy new services in hours. MongoDB's solution is relied on for 100% of Pathao's user transactions and has been key to supporting millions of weekly transactions and the company's international expansion plans.
