The Challenge: The Need for a Scalable Cloud Environment
Plogg was in need of a scalable cloud environment that is both lightweight and powerful while being uniform, cost-efficient and easy for developers to learn. One of their main goals was to reduce DevOps and architect workload by automating and minimizing maintenance.
The Solution: A Smooth and Efficient Transition to Google Cloud
Plogg moved over 200 websites, including VM’s to the Google Cloud within 3 weeks. This was possible due to the platform’s scalability & easy-to-use App Engines coupled with the existing use of Google Cloud API usage. The transition was smooth and fast and attained the desired outcome of a uniformed hosting environment.
Tangible Results: Reducing Costs and Faster Application Development
Plogg’s hosting costs dropped by over 25% in less than 1 month after transitioning to Google Cloud and attained a 2000$/month ROI. The user-friendly and self-service developer features of Google Cloud enabled faster application development. In turn, Plogg now offers clients upscale hosting, Business Intelligence, monitoring and anti-intrusion services.
