Case Study: Vivint Solar achieves scalable, cloud-based analytics and faster insights with MicroStrategy on AWS

Vivint Solar Support their Entire Enterprise Microstrategy Cloud Platform on Aws

Vivint Solar, a fast‑growing residential solar provider with 4,000+ energy experts serving customers across 21 states, outgrew its Excel‑based analytics as data volumes and reporting needs ballooned. Spreadsheets took hours to process, produced disputed results, and left the small BI team with no bandwidth to support a large sales organization, so Vivint needed a scalable, easy‑to‑access analytics platform.

Vivint deployed the MicroStrategy Cloud Platform on AWS, using Amazon VPC, CloudFormation, EC2, and RDS to spin up a secure, multi‑node environment in about a week; MicroStrategy manages the instances so Vivint’s team can focus on insights. The result: instant, mobile access to trusted analytics, easy scaling to match peak loads (reducing infrastructure costs), and a shift from managing systems to delivering decision‑ready information across the enterprise.
