February 2020 Summaries

NetSpyGlass, a network monitoring solution known for its customizability, faced challenges in choosing the right data stores and management strategy with a small team. They eventually decided to use Aiven's managed database and Kafka solutions to ease their operational burden, shorten their innovation cycle, and improve service design. This decision allowed them to focus on their core competencies while benefiting from Aiven's expertise in managing databases and Kafka clusters.

ADEO, the third largest global player in the home improvement market with over 450 million customers from more than 700 stores around the world, uses Aiven's hosted services to provide database and messaging services to internal users across the company. The databases and middleware team now focuses on dev and added value actions instead of managing infrastructure. ADEO group enjoys Aiven's hosted services for reasons beyond just offloading infrastructure tasks. They have transformed their data capabilities at scale using the Aiven platform, which supports Apache Kafka, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch/OpenSearch, MySQL, and Redis.
