Migration Challenges
Starting with on-premises infrastructure in 2009, Optimove gradually opened data centers in the US and Europe. As the company grew, managing a growing customer base and large data volumes on on-premises infrastructure became challenging. After four years into their cloud migration, Optimove needed to complete the transition to bridge gaps within the company. Key challenges included running duplicate environments from development to production and maintaining high security standards for ISO certification while working toward SOC certification.
DoiT's Expert Guidance
DoiT provided expert guidance and consultation throughout the remainder of the migration process. The team worked closely with Optimove to clarify requirements, identify challenges, and formulate an effective cloud strategy. DoiT's cloud experts provided technical support to optimize the remaining migration work and ensure a seamless transition to Google Cloud. They assisted with setting up, configuring, and tuning services, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency.
Security and Compliance
Data security is paramount for Optimove, given the sensitive customer data it handles. DoiT leveraged Google Cloud's robust security measures and certifications, such as ISO and SOC, to meet stringent compliance and data protection standards. By running everything in one place on Google Cloud, Optimove made audits easier and gained access to easy-to-use tools to maintain security standards with less time and effort.
Managed Services Implementation
DoiT helped Optimove identify and implement the most suitable managed services to handle their data efficiently. This included services like Cloud AutoML, BigQuery, Cloud Storage, and Cloud Pub/Sub. Google Kubernetes Engine was utilized to efficiently manage hundreds of microservices. DoiT assisted in migrating the microservices architecture to GKE and building a new event-streaming system, which led to significant improvements in scalability and performance.
Transformational Results
The migration yielded significant results including enhanced performance with 40-60% improvement in execution times, seamless scalability through GKE managing hundreds of microservices, and streamlined operations that freed the team from infrastructure concerns. The new event-streaming system enabled quick customer onboarding and superior service experience. Google Cloud's global presence allowed Optimove to expand its business reach while maintaining robust security and compliance standards.

What they say
What I really like about DoiT's approach is that you're very hands-on and proactive. Satyam would ping me a few times a sprint, letting me know about the most current features, checking in on how things are going. When we are going through a peak time, that proactiveness makes a real difference. Satyam always comes through whenever we need support and helps us leverage the right experts to get us where we need to be.
Chiamaka Ibeme, Engineering Manager, Platform
SELECT has made important cost data readily accessible. I will often pull it up during engineering design reviews so we can quickly evaluate cost impact and projections and factor that into our design decisions.
Douglas Zickuhr, Senior Data Platform Engineer at Personio
I love clicking through SELECT to understand how our environment and workloads are evolving. I probably check it every day. It's coffee and SELECT for me every morning.
Ian Fahey, Senior Analytics Engineer at Loop
You guys have the best UI experience that I've had of any software. It's like you just read my mind where, like, oh, I wish I could click there. Oh, I can
Diana Koshy, Sr. Director of Data Engineering at Kargo
SELECT feels like exactly what Paul and I would have built if we had locked ourselves in a room for 18 months to create our ideal monitoring solution.
Devin McGee, Data Engineering Lead at Home Chef
SELECT dramatically lowers the cognitive load to understanding Snowflake costs. I'm able to sit there and easily understand what's driving the cost. Not to blow smoke up your ass, but it's just so easy to do in your platform
Blake Baggett, Head of Data Operations at Entain
One of the most helpful cost rituals we've setup from SELECT is the weekly spend digest sent to Slack. I can start high level and ensure things are in check. If not, I can very quickly drill down into specific workloads which may have driven the cost spike and remediate them before they become a bigger issue.
Michael Revelo, Manager of data and analytics engineering at ClickUp
Through SELECT's automated savings feature and deep cost visibility, we were able to instantly lower our Snowflake spend by over 40% and achieve a 20X ROI on our SELECT investment.
Skyler Chi, SVP, GTM Productivity & Excellence at Exiger
Our costs had jumped up 3X as we scaled, so we're talking about 60% savings in Snowflake spend after adopting SELECT.
Edward Mancey, GTM Lead at Synthesia
DoiT was a true partner, not a vendor. They helped us understand the problem, refine the vision, and build something production-ready far faster than we could have on our own. Their expertise, responsiveness, and commitment made all the difference.
Dr. Anish Kapur, Founder & CEO, Promptly
DoiT's Customer Success and Forward Deployed Engineering teams work very closely with us. The regular sessions with our CSM keep us focused on the right priorities, and the FDEs provide the deep technical guidance we need to validate decisions and optimize our environment. That combination has been genuinely valuable for us.
Alexander Lundberg Santos, Platform Engineer at Extenda Retail
When we started working with DoiT, we deployed Flexsave to save time and reduce complexity. We still use it today. But what really stands out is the expert support. Having someone to collaborate with on deep cloud cost topics, someone who really understands the nuances, is incredibly valuable.
Jesper Terkelsen, CTO at Monta
DoiT's Cloud Accelerator turned our AI idea into a shipped product, saving at least three months of development and delivering reliable, explainable insights our customers trust.
