Case Study: VRGlass achieves 5x database performance and lower costs with Oracle MySQL HeatWave

VRGlass increases database performance by 5X over Amazon EC2 with MySQL HeatWave

VRGlass, a Brazilian startup that builds VR and AR applications and its Virtual Town metaverse platform, needed a reliable, scalable cloud database to handle demanding workloads and improve performance beyond AWS EC2 and DigitalOcean. The company turned to Oracle, using Oracle MySQL HeatWave on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to support high-stress events and cloud-based database operations.

With Oracle MySQL HeatWave and support from Oracle for Startups, VRGlass migrated its application data and saw immediate gains: database performance increased by 500%, costs were cut in half, and the platform was able to handle NBA House Digital 2021 traffic with 8,000 registrations per minute, over 1 million visitors, and 1.7 million sessions. Oracle also helped improve availability, scalability, and security, while VRGlass tripled revenue on its metaverse platform and delivered eight projects for Oracle customers.
