Case Study: Truecaller halves costs and latency with Redpanda

Truecaller halves latency and saves 58% on infrastructure with Redpanda

Truecaller, a global platform for caller ID and spam blocking with 450 million users, faced stalled growth and costly infrastructure due to its self-managed Apache Kafka clusters. The expensive and unscalable setup required significant maintenance, causing performance issues and storage limitations that hindered the team's internal projects. They sought a fully-managed solution to free up resources and support future scale, leading them to the vendor Redpanda.

By implementing Redpanda Cloud's fully-managed service with Bring-Your-Own-Cloud (BYOC), Truecaller eliminated cluster maintenance. The solution provided full Kafka API compatibility and high data availability. As a result, Redpanda helped Truecaller achieve a 58% reduction in annual infrastructure costs and a 50% decrease in latency, allowing the team to refocus on initiatives that drive company growth.
