Case Study: Ruby Play Network achieves scalable AWS Aurora PostgreSQL performance with Pythian

Ruby Play Network scales AWS Aurora PostgreSQL with Pythian amid 10M monthly row growth

Ruby Play Network, a crypto and gaming studio, faced critical performance bottlenecks as their AWS Aurora PostgreSQL databases were overwhelmed by rapid growth, adding over 10 million new rows monthly. This threatened player engagement and developer productivity, leading them to seek a proactive solution with vendor Pythian's database services.

Pythian performed comprehensive health checks and implemented PostgreSQL performance optimizations, including fine-tuning database settings and organizing data storage. This solution slashed AWS costs, secured application stability, and enabled seamless scaling for their 130,000 users. The partnership also liberated Ruby Play's engineering team, allowing them to scale three gaming products faster and increasing overall productivity.
