Case Study: Fabrikant.ru achieves near-zero downtime and scalable, secure trading with MySQL Enterprise Edition

Fabrikant.ru Enjoys Near-Zero Downtime Due to Powerful Data Management Tools

Fabrikant.ru is a Russian electronic-trading platform launched in 2005 that connects buyers, brokers and suppliers across industries, serving more than 130,000 registered companies with 10,000+ trading procedures and 24/7 access. The company needed a secure, scalable data-management environment to support international round‑the‑clock trading, broaden its trading tools and analytics, optimize database maintenance, and boost IT productivity while cutting operational costs.

Fabrikant.ru deployed MySQL Enterprise Edition—using MySQL Database, Enterprise Security (single sign‑on), Scalability/Thread Pool, comprehensive backup and replication, Monitor and Query Analyzer, and 24/7 MySQL support. The solution delivered near‑zero downtime, capacity for up to 10,000 transactions per second from 8,000 concurrent users, zero data‑loss backups, and dramatically faster troubleshooting (weeks reduced to hours per month), improving overall IT efficiency and platform reliability.
