Case Study: Staples achieves high performance and stability with Redis Enterprise

Redis Enterprise’s Stability & High Performance Brings Staples Peace-of-Mind

Staples Business Advantage Canada, a Fortune 500 wholesaler and distributor of office and promotional products, was struggling with high latency and slow response times from legacy databases that couldn’t handle required volume or throughput. These performance bottlenecks were impairing e-commerce responsiveness and scalability needs.

Staples deployed Redis Enterprise as a caching and scalability tier (initially serving a <1 GB dataset) and is migrating more data from RDBMS systems to Redis to speed additional parts of their applications. The move delivered high availability, stability, seamless scaling/auto-sharding and cross-zone replication, resulting in tremendous cost savings, faster time to market, fewer specialized personnel required, and consistently higher, more stable performance—leaving the team “stress-free.”
