Case Study: SSG.COM achieves higher eCommerce performance and availability with MySQL Enterprise Edition

Ssg.com Co., Ltd doubles Postgres performance with MySQL

Ssg.com Co., Ltd, one of South Korea's largest online shopping malls, needed to consolidate 14 separate eCommerce sites into a single, high-performance platform. Their challenges included ensuring maximum availability, improving upon the performance of their previous Postgres databases, reducing support costs, and protecting against cyber threats. They turned to vendor MySQL to address these needs with MySQL Enterprise Edition.

MySQL, implemented with the help of partner rockPLACE, provided a solution using MySQL Enterprise Edition. The results included a doubling of performance compared to Postgres, streamlined operations, and enhanced security. Measurable impacts were a strengthened brand, reduced inventory costs, and gaining valuable insights into customer purchasing patterns, all contributing to the success of their consolidated SSG.COM mall.
