Case Study: Global Technology Company achieves lower costs and faster provisioning with Robin.io

Global Technology Company - Customer Case Study

Global Technology Company, a technology leader in the travel and hospitality industry, needed to support hundreds of real-time applications across a highly complex IT environment. Its biggest challenges were soaring hardware and storage costs, slow and procedural provisioning, underutilized infrastructure, cluster sprawl, and the expense of running dedicated virtual machines, Oracle RAC instances, and SAN arrays. Robin.io was brought in as the containerization platform to help modernize database and application management.

With Robin.io, the company created a self-service, app-store-like database and application environment with 1-click provisioning, scaling, snapshotting, cloning, and migration. The result was a major operational improvement: provisioning dropped from weeks to minutes, lifecycle tasks from hours to minutes, and 400 Oracle RAC database deployments were consolidated onto a single Robin cluster. Robin.io also improved developer productivity, reduced CAPEX and infrastructure costs, and enabled better performance monitoring and alerting across microservices.
