Case Study: vidaXL achieves scalable eCommerce database management with Severalnines ClusterControl

VidaXL - Customer Case Study

vidaXL, a large international eCommerce retailer based in the Netherlands, was facing significant challenges as it prepared to grow its product catalogue from 20,000 to over 10 million items. This expansion created a massive data management issue, including 100 terabytes of images and up to two terabytes of product data. The company needed a cost-effective solution to handle this scaling and avoid hiring numerous additional database administrators.

Severalnines provided its ClusterControl platform to manage vidaXL's database systems. The solution, which integrated seamlessly with their existing MongoDB, MySQL, and ElasticSearch databases, replaced a collection of disparate tools and automated management and scaling. This provided the strong infrastructure foundation needed to support exponential growth and prevent costly online outages. The deployment was completed in about a week without requiring extra support from Severalnines.
