Recrowd, Italy's leading crowdfunding platform, has successfully addressed its scalability challenges by utilizing Neon's autoscaling capabilities, transitioning from a manual, time-consuming database management approach with MySQL in Azure, which often resulted in downtime during high-traffic periods. Neon, a serverless Postgres solution, offers dynamic autoscaling that automatically adjusts compute resources according to demand, ensuring seamless operations without manual intervention or cost inefficiencies. This feature allows Recrowd to efficiently manage unpredictable traffic spikes during new investment project launches, maintaining optimal performance and an uninterrupted customer experience. The switch to Neon has eliminated the need for pre-provisioning or manual resizing, reducing downtime and allowing the Recrowd team to focus on providing investment opportunities with transparency and security for their users.
