Case Study: Large Asian Mobile Carrier improves customer authentication with Red Hat JBoss Data Grid

Large Mobile Carrier Improves Customer Authentication with Red Hat Jboss Data Grid

Large Asian Mobile Carrier Company needed a way to scale customer authentication as its user base grew from 32 million to 50 million and login traffic rose from 1,000 to 4,000 requests per second. Its existing authentication platform was slow, difficult to scale, and costly to maintain, so it turned to Red Hat and Red Hat JBoss Data Grid to modernize the system.

Red Hat implemented JBoss Data Grid as an in-memory, distributed datastore, with Red Hat Consulting supporting the migration. The new platform enabled real-time authentication without an external database, cut processing time to 2 milliseconds per request, reduced application lag, and lowered software costs by 90% by eliminating proprietary licensing fees.
