YugabyteDB Managed Customer Highlights

Admiral, a leading Visitor Relationship Management (VRM) platform, serves thousands of publishers worldwide. Admiral chose YugabyteDB for its comprehensive geo-distribution capabilities, single-digit low latency capabilities, massive scalability, and high performance. Their goal with YugabyteDB Managed? To future-proof their system for exponential growth.

“YugabyteDB is a solid technical choice that meets all of our key requirements, including massive scale, high performance, low latency reads, and cloud native out-of-the-box. In addition, the support team at Yugabyte is incredibly responsive, beyond what we’ve experienced with other vendors. We evaluated CockroachDB, but decided to go with YugabyteDB because we got 3x better performance with fewer resources, while avoiding the significant hiccups in latency we saw with CockroachDB.”

James Hartig, Co-Founder of Admiral, commented,

Genxlead is a leading provider of advertising and marketing services and is focused on delivering innovative, data-driven services. To meet their need to support growth and continue providing high-quality services to their clients, Genxlead selected YugabyteDB Managed due to its scalability, performance, and ease of operation. They are currently in the process of moving their production workloads to YugabyteDB Managed.

YugabyteDB Managed Product Innovation: An Overview

The focus last year was on constant innovation. Our goal was to make it even easier for you to build your mission-critical apps using YugabyteDB Managed.

  • Many companies have a growing need for geo-distributed global apps that can handle high traffic across multiple regions. To support this, we’ve added the ability to create multi-region clusters, geo-partitioned clusters, and read replicas. This makes it simple to scale your apps globally and ensure high availability and low latency by moving data closer to your users.
  • It’s now easier than ever to deploy new clusters in YugabyteDB Managed at scale. We’ve made our cluster deployment process faster, so you can spin up most clusters in less than five minutes. We’ve also added more powerful instance types to handle even more demanding workloads. REST API for YugabyteDB Managed and Terraform provider make it a breeze to deploy and manage your infrastructure as code.
  • If your data is trapped in a legacy database no worries. YugabyteDB Voyager helps you quickly and safely migrate data from legacy databases—like Oracle, or single-cloud databases like Amazon Aurora and Azure Database for PostgreSQL—to YugabyteDB Managed.

    “To simplify the migration from our legacy databases, we were excited to embrace YugabyteDB Voyager. We completed a successful PoC that allowed us to load 120M records with YugabyteDB Voyager.”

    —Madhan Kumar, Founder, Genxlead

  • Ease of management is always a top priority. Configurable maintenance windows allow you to schedule maintenance for your clusters during periods of low usage. We’ve also added the ability to view cluster health status at a glance and to pause/resume clusters to reduce cost.
  • Our new Performance Advisor helps you identify and troubleshoot performance issues much faster.
  • We introduced several innovations in our core database so your queries will run faster (with pushdowns and smart-scans). YugabyteDB is the only distributed SQL database that fully supports read committed isolation levels and stored procedures triggers, so you don’t have to compromise.

So now we find ourselves in a brand new year, and we are even more committed to YugabyteDB Managed innovation! Be on the lookout for our newsletter so that we can introduce you to a range of exciting features to improve developer productivity, ease management, and keep your data secure. It will be the best email you receive every month. We’re so excited, and we hope you are too!
