Case Study: LiveSponsors achieves 20s-to-7ms query performance with SurrealDB

LiveSponsors - Customer Case Study

Livesponsors, a company in the media and entertainment industry, was struggling with a hybrid MySQL and MongoDB architecture for its loyalty engine. This setup resulted in slow transactional processing and unacceptable latency spikes of up to 20 seconds, which was too slow for real-time operations. The scaling limitations and rising operational complexity were significant challenges for their platform.

The company implemented a solution by migrating their loyalty engine to SurrealDB Cloud. SurrealDB provided flexible data modeling with schema-optional tables and unified data access with its SurrealQL language. This consolidation streamlined their infrastructure and development. The results were dramatic, with query times slashed from 20 seconds to 7 milliseconds, radically reducing latency. The move also lowered infrastructure overhead and enabled real-time intelligence for their platform.
