Case Study: dbrand achieves a million-dollar day and rock-solid scalability with Pantheon

dbrand Turns a Traffic Spike into a Million-Dollar Day with Pantheon

dbrand, maker of custom vinyl skins for phones, laptops and gaming consoles, runs a JavaScript-powered configurator with a live preview — the core of its business. Faced with rapid growth and the risk that downtime or slow performance would directly cut revenue, the company needed a robust, scalable hosting platform and an up-to-date test environment to safely develop improvements.

dbrand migrated to Pantheon with a smooth, zero-downtime launch and gained the stability, performance, and dev workflow it needed. When a Black Friday sweepstakes drove massive traffic, the site stayed fast and delivered dbrand’s first million-dollar day; since then the company has seen faster page loads, the ability to handle large traffic spikes (700% year-over-year visitor growth) and confidence to continue improving the user experience without risking outages.
