Summary

Stigg, a company focused on managing pricing and packaging infrastructure for vendors, faced challenges in handling migrations and entitlement calculations for millions of customer subscriptions as their client base grew. Initially relying on a pre-calculated approach, Stigg found that scaling this method was both time-consuming and costly, especially when dealing with large vendors making frequent changes. To address these issues, Stigg shifted to a dynamic calculation model, storing only the essential building blocks of customer entitlements and calculating them in real-time upon request. This transition allowed Stigg to drastically reduce migration times and operational costs associated with DynamoDB, as well as improve the efficiency and scalability of their infrastructure. By implementing smart caching strategies and separating cache invalidation and webhook processes, Stigg maintained fast service delivery and ensured up-to-date entitlements for vendors' customers. As a result, Stigg now boasts a more cost-effective, scalable solution capable of supporting businesses of any size with their pricing and packaging needs.
