Case Study: Schwarz Group opens new cloud routes and improves scalability with MongoDB

Schwarz Group launches STACKIT with MongoDB to support 100GB daily data loads

The Schwarz Group, Europe's largest retail company, faced the challenge of modernizing its IT infrastructure and providing a cloud platform alternative to hyperscalers that guaranteed data residency within the EU. Through its IT arm, Schwarz IT, it launched STACKIT and needed a high-performance, scalable NoSQL database to support complex internal projects and external customer use cases, leading them to partner with MongoDB.

By implementing MongoDB Enterprise Advanced as the managed service STACKIT MongoDB, the vendor provided a flexible, cloud-native database solution. This enabled the Schwarz Group to ensure data sovereignty for its customers, accelerate deployments, and gain transparent cost monitoring. The solution also unlocked a new revenue stream by offering a viable European cloud alternative and helped drive internal efficiencies.
