Full Story

VideoAmp operated a traditional data center architecture creating viewership tables sent downstream. The company needed a more robust, scalable platform with flexible infrastructure, strong governance, and secure data sharing without data duplication.

Costs dropped 90%, performance improved 10x, data backfilling went from 5 days to 13 hours, cluster spin-up from 10 minutes to seconds, and annual data reprocessing from 5 days to hours.
