Case Study: Energyworx cuts compute costs with Nordcloud’s Kubernetes migration

Energyworx reduces compute workloads by 50% with Nordcloud

Energyworx, a Dutch scale-up providing a big data platform for the energy sector, faced rising infrastructure costs and performance issues with their Google Cloud Platform managed services. Their primary challenge was the high expense and aggressive auto-scaling of Google Dataflow, which was causing unnecessary spend and technical limitations. They partnered with Nordcloud to migrate their data processing pipelines to a more efficient solution.

Nordcloud implemented a solution by migrating Energyworx's workloads to Kubernetes, enabling granular control over auto-scaling and removing the restrictive Beam framework. This migration resulted in over 50% savings on compute workloads for Energyworx. Additionally, Nordcloud's work opened avenues for future cost savings and positioned the platform to be deployed across other hyperscaler environments.
