The Challenge
Good Growth needed to reduce costs for a global enterprise project involving heavy Google Maps API usage. They also wanted to optimize their existing Google Cloud solutions, reduce maintenance overhead, and improve their GKE expertise while maintaining agility as they scaled rapidly.
The Solution
DoiT provided bulk discounts, expert Google Cloud guidance, and the Cloud Management Platform. The team helped optimize GKE configurations, recommended pod disruption budgets, assisted with migration to fully-managed services like Cloud Run, and provided transparent cost attribution across customers.
Results
- Achieved 18% cost reduction on Google Maps API project through bulk discounts
- Reduced troubleshooting time from days to hours with expert DoiT support
- Implemented zero-downtime operations through better infrastructure management
- Gained transparent cost attribution across customers and vendors
The DoiT team helped us develop our GKE expertise and now, rather than spending days trying to dig through the documentation to find what's gone wrong, we speak to DoiT and within a couple of hours we have found the reason and the solution.

Meeting the Challenge
Good Growth's customers are primarily global enterprises that have been burned by past digital transformation experiences. The company creates bespoke plans for each customer, allowing them to take small steps towards commercial outcomes while decoupling technical and commercial agendas. When working on a project for a global enterprise involving heavy Google Maps API usage, costs became a significant concern, leading their Google Cloud account manager to recommend partnering with DoiT for bulk discounts.
Seamless Onboarding and Immediate Benefits
The DoiT onboarding process was simple and seamless. Before signing the contract, DoiT was already providing preemptive support and sharing knowledge. The team switched the Maps API project billing to DoiT and saw immediate results with an 18% cost reduction. DoiT's billing system also enabled easy cost attribution across different customers, something difficult to achieve directly in Google Cloud.
Optimizing Google Cloud Infrastructure
DoiT helped Good Growth optimize their existing Google Kubernetes Engine implementation. The team provided expert guidance on pod disruption budgets, ensuring GKE maintains specified pod availability during maintenance operations. This ten-minute implementation solved a significant operational issue. DoiT also guided the migration to fully-managed services like Cloud Run and MongoDB Atlas for zero-downtime operations.
Enhanced Support and Operational Excellence
Unlike their previous support provider who offered quick fixes, DoiT provides comprehensive solutions that address root causes. Response times improved dramatically, and even when escalation to Google Cloud is needed, DoiT's relationship ensures faster resolution. The partnership eliminates time spent on dummy runs, as Good Growth can discuss infrastructure choices with DoiT's experienced engineers before implementation.
Transparent Cloud Management
Good Growth adopted the DoiT Cloud Management Platform to manage and analyze cloud spend as more processes moved to the cloud. The platform provides transparency into spending across customers and vendors, enabling accurate cost attribution. This visibility helps Good Growth make informed decisions about infrastructure investments and pass cost savings directly to their customers.
Scaling with Confidence
As Good Growth grows rapidly, the DoiT partnership ensures their infrastructure can scale without worry. The company can concentrate on customers while maintaining the agility crucial for startups and scale-ups. Benefits from the DoiT partnership, including cost savings and improved platform resilience, are passed directly to Good Growth's customers, supporting their mission to change how businesses pursue digital transformation.

What they say
Partnership with DoiT is extremely significant. We've been able to grow significantly over the last year, mostly because we could reinvest our resources in new technologies instead of new internal resources.
Jason Hartin, CTO
On integrating DataHub, the DoiT team was very hands-on to the point where DoiT support put together the first ingestion script and pipeline to unlock us.
Kyle Espinola, Head of Platform Engineering
“PerfectScale gives us the confidence to automate Kubernetes optimization while letting our engineers focus on building what matters.”
Josh Zarrabi, Infrastructure Engineer
“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
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
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
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.
