A MySQL Case Study
WelcomeNext S.L., a Spanish SaaS ISV of e-learning services, faced significant challenges with high availability, performance issues, and excessive costs while using MySQL Community Edition on Microsoft Azure. Their system experienced frequent failures and connectivity loss, which was intolerable for their online training solutions. Seeking an infrastructure for solid growth, they turned to vendor MySQL and its MySQL HeatWave service on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
By migrating to MySQL HeatWave on OCI, WelcomeNext achieved maximum availability and drastically improved performance. The solution provided automatic failover, optimized traffic, and robust security. The results included an 80% reduction in monthly costs, the elimination of data transfer fees, and access to 24/7 proactive support. This allowed the company to reallocate database administrators to development and confidently prepare for global expansion.
