Case Study: PickMe reduces latency and management overhead with Searce on Google Cloud

PickMe reduces latency 10x with Searce

PickMe, a Sri Lankan mobility solutions provider, faced significant infrastructure challenges including difficulty scaling for traffic surges, sporadic downtimes, and increased lead times for procuring new servers. These issues hindered their ability to iterate quickly. To address this, they partnered with vendor Searce for a migration to Google Cloud Platform.

Searce implemented a solution that consolidated servers into a multi-tiered, highly available architecture on Google Cloud. This involved deploying self-managed MySQL servers with a complex replication topology and utilizing managed CloudSQL databases. The vendor also migrated PickMe to GKE. As a result, PickMe achieved a 10x reduction in latency, reduced infrastructure spend, and significantly lowered management overhead.
