How Hootsuite delivers high performing AWS applications to their customers

To deliver applications with high SLA’s, Hootsuite implemented Sumo Logic machine data analytics platform. The Sumo Logic solution dramatically reduced the total cost of ownership for Hootsuite; the service also helped Hootsuite meet their customer experience needs while enabling internal DevOps/IT team to focus on their core enduser services.

    Challenge

    Hootsuite had a high TCO with their ELK and Graphite stack which made management and administration both time-consuming and expensive. They also didn’t have full visibility into their infrastructure which made both monitoring and troubleshooting difficult to manage.

    Solution

    Hootsuite selected Sumo Logic for its overall simplicity and the ability to give their team end-to-end visibility. An added bonus was improving internal team collaboration with shared dashboards and insights.

    “Sumo Logic provides us [Hootsuite] instant visibility into AWS services. We were able to get AWS ELB dashboards in a few minutes, which was very impressive.”

    —Alex Zadorozhnyi, Director of Technology

    Results

    Hootsuite has seen a marked application performance improvement, reduction in TCO, and the ability to scale with their growth in AWS.
