GoldenRace Cuts Cloud Costs 21%

Cloud Intelligence™, Flexsave, and hands-on AWS guidance streamlined multi-account spend and accelerated the Aurora 3 migration.

Meet GoldenRace

GoldenRace generates more than 25 million betting tickets per day as a global leader in virtual games. Founded in Malta in 2006, the company offers virtual sports betting opportunities across virtual racing, football, and more on over 500 websites. By simulating realistic games and realistic odds, GoldenRace provides new opportunities for entertainment and unique viewing experiences worldwide. The company belongs to Softquo Holding, a world-leading gambling holding company committed to innovation and technology.

The Challenge

With nearly 20 years of technology built and layered together, GoldenRace wanted to identify areas of its cloud infrastructure it could optimize to improve performance-per-spend and cut wasted engineering effort. Operating in multiple countries with multiple cloud accounts made it difficult to understand exactly where or how they were spending money to power their cloud infrastructure.

The Solution

DoiT helped GoldenRace review their database usage to identify spikes and optimization opportunities during an AWS Aurora 2 to Aurora 3 upgrade. The company implemented Flexsave for Compute for automated compute management, consolidated reporting across multiple AWS accounts with Cloud Intelligence™, and deployed Real-Time Anomaly Detection for proactive security.

Results

  • Completed AWS Aurora 3 migration in just 2 months during holiday season with minimal downtime
  • Achieved 21% overall reduction in cloud costs through automated optimization
  • Reduced monthly reporting time from several days to just one hour across multiple accounts
  • Detected and prevented security vulnerabilities before reaching production environment

DoiT's expertise helps me see options I might have missed. Their point of view helps me think beyond what's in front of me and discover new solutions to optimize our cloud processing.

Alejandro Gomez, IT Director at GoldenRace

Improving efficiency during a complex migration

During the upgrade from Aurora 2 to Aurora 3, DoiT helped GoldenRace recognize areas of its database that could be improved while simultaneously migrating versions. By recommending changes to specific configurations, the team could accelerate processing speed and allow the database to be more adaptable to usage fluctuations without adding operational overhead. GoldenRace implemented Flexsave for Compute for ongoing, automated compute management. DoiT also suggested Aurora I/O optimized with MySQL 8.0 to better meet their needs.

Gaining greater visibility across cloud environments

Variation in regional regulations and data storage laws means GoldenRace maintains multiple AWS accounts. The company wanted to make more data-driven decisions but compiling cross-account data took several days every month. They combined these datasets into Cloud Intelligence™ and Cloud Analytics to gain clearer insight across the entire organization. This reduced the time spent manually finding and processing data, allowing focus on growth.

Protecting company data with proactive cloud security

With Real-Time Anomaly Detection, GoldenRace can automatically catch and quickly correct cost and security anomalies before they escalate. The automated review process means they don't have to monitor workloads constantly, and if a vulnerability appears affecting their system, they're alerted immediately. The team can now catch common vulnerabilities and exposures before they're deployed in production. They detected a vulnerability in one of their variables built using a third-party tool, but DoiT's Anomaly Detection combined with Lacework caught the CVE and provided remediation recommendations before it reached production.

Results and ongoing optimization

GoldenRace completed its AWS Aurora 3 migration in just two months during the busy holiday season while minimizing downtime. The company saw an immediate 3% reduction in cloud cost across each server with Flexsave for Compute, growing to more than 5% as it scales. Monthly reporting that previously took several days now takes just one hour with the DoiT dashboard. GoldenRace continues leveraging their relationship with DoiT to explore new optimization opportunities, including right-sizing Kubernetes clusters.

What they say

Stefanini

“Without PerfectScale by DoiT, I don't know how we would do it. We'd have to have twice the number of people on my team to stay on top of it. With PerfectScale, we can focus on the more strategic issues.”

David Adkins, Director of Software and Platform Engineering

Software Projects

Connecting IBM and AWS privately was the piece we needed to get right, and we wanted to move faster on it than we could on our own. DoiT worked through the options with us, found the subnet overlap that was breaking the routing, and made it stable. That unblocked everything else.

DevOps Lead, Software Projects

Shasta Cloud

Attribute™'s platform is truly unique. We now have crystal-clear visibility into our cloud spend at the workload and tenant level, and that insight has already led to actionable savings and powerful insights as we further scale our service.

Paul White, VP of Engineering, Shasta Cloud

Flooid

We have worked with DoiT for many years, and there has been an increasing number of capabilities and features in DoiT Cloud Intelligence. We've embedded features such as Cloud Analytics and Reports in our own FinOps processes, it's become core to what we do.

Martin Lee, Director of Operations

Finlex

DoiT gave us the confidence to move from experimentation to production. They helped us understand the right way to build AI for the real world.
