How Moving from AWS to GCP with Doit Delivered Huge Efficiencies
Delighted to share the story of our journey from AWS to Google Cloud Platform featured by our good friends at DoiT International. When you’re processing almost 1Bn spatial data points a day, having the right architecture on the right platform is key to performance and cost.
Huq selected Google as its strategic platform partner and the business impact was huge, with Huq’s cloud bill halving whilst daily data volumes quadrupled. And the new Google Cloud architecture can support an increased daily data volumes of 100x.
To help us make this important change, we worked with Doit International. As a managed services provider, DoiT have been instrumental in making the move a success and we couldn’t recommend them more highly.
