Case Study: Speedcast achieves higher uptime and productivity with Severalnines ClusterControl

Speedcast - Customer Case Study

Speedcast, a global satellite communications provider, needed a high-availability database solution for a new internal cloud service. Their challenge was to manage a MySQL Cluster architecture without hiring a specialized DBA. They required advanced failover features, deep monitoring integration, and a partner with expert knowledge in the technology. This led them to the vendor, Severalnines.

Severalnines provided its ClusterControl platform, which offered robust automation and management features for MySQL Cluster. The solution empowered Speedcast's existing operations team to deploy and manage the system, acting as a 'virtual DBA.' As a result, Speedcast achieved improved uptime, expandability, and productivity. The successfully deployed system is now used in over 1500 remote sites globally.
