Case Study: Scholica achieves seamless scaling and 70%+ downtime reduction with Redis Enterprise (Redis Labs)

Redis Enterprise Helps Scholica Scale Seamlessly and Reduce Downtime by Over 70%

Scholica is a small e‑learning company that builds tools to simplify course creation and search for educators, and offers a customizable Scholica Cloud PaaS for schools and enterprises. To support fast content search, growing user load, mobile and internal apps, and to meet its performance and availability goals at low operating cost, Scholica needed a high‑performance, highly available database that could scale seamlessly.

Scholica deployed Redis Enterprise for caching, job/queue management and clustering, gaining seamless scaling and high availability across zones and regions. The move delivered dramatic results: 70–90% reductions in downtime, 70–90% cost savings and fewer specialized resources, up to 30% faster time to market, and much more stable performance — prompting plans to migrate additional data from traditional RDBMS platforms.
