Evolving for the enterprise: lessons from running BYOC at scale with ShareChat

ShareChat, India's largest social media company, transitioned its streaming data infrastructure from Google Pub/Sub to Redpanda Cloud, leading to a 70% reduction in cloud infrastructure costs and operational complexity. The shift to Redpanda's managed cloud solution, with its flexible and efficient architecture, enabled ShareChat to deploy, operate, and maintain their system more effectively while ensuring data ownership and sovereignty. The incorporation of features like Tiered Storage, follower fetching, and optimized cloud instance profiles further enhanced cost savings and performance, allowing ShareChat to scale seamlessly during high-traffic events without impacting user experience. The transition also facilitated ShareChat's compliance with data protection regulations, thanks to Redpanda's BYOC offering, which maintained data hosting within ShareChat's cloud environment. This evolution not only benefited ShareChat but also led to broader enhancements in Redpanda Cloud's offerings, making it more robust for large-scale enterprises.
