Increasing your business revenue by 25% while reducing IT costs by 30%. Sounds too good to be true? Let’s dive into real-life examples of how Cloud services helped businesses drive growth, increase efficiency, and of course save money.
Dive into real-life success stories of businesses like Netflix, Duolingo, AECOM, and Capital One, and discover how Cloud services transformed their operations.
Netflix’s AWS Success Story — Scale or Bust
Netflix, a household name in the entertainment industry, saw an opportunity to expand its streaming services worldwide. To achieve this, they needed a flexible, scalable infrastructure that could handle traffic spikes and diverse content delivery needs.
Netflix turned to Amazon Web Services (AWS) and leveraged services such as Amazon EC2, AWS Lambda, and Amazon S3 to build a resilient, globally distributed architecture. This approach allowed them to dynamically allocate resources, handle traffic spikes, and reduce latency using AWS edge locations.
If Netflix hadn’t adopted AWS, they would have struggled with latency issues, reduced service quality, and limited expansion capabilities due to massive investments in building their own data centers.

Duolingo’s Google Cloud Success Story — Mo’ Users Mo’ Problems
Duolingo, a popular language-learning platform, faced escalating infrastructure costs as its user base grew. They needed a cost-effective solution that would allow them to optimize resource usage and support continued growth.
Duolingo migrated to Google Cloud, leveraging Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and Cloud SQL for autoscaling and efficient resource management. This enabled them to pay only for the resources they consumed, significantly lowering their operational expenses.
Without this migration, Duolingo would have faced increasing financial pressure and might have had to compromise on service quality or limit its expansion.

AECOM’s Microsoft Azure Success Story — Efficiently Inefficient…
AECOM, a multinational engineering firm, needed to improve collaboration and project management across its global workforce. Traditional IT solutions were slow and inefficient, leading to delays and increased project costs.
AECOM adopted Microsoft Azure, utilizing Azure DevOps and Azure Active Directory to streamline communication, project management, and access control across different geographic locations. This approach reduced project delivery times, improved collaboration, and increased overall efficiency.
Without Azure, AECOM would have continued struggling with inefficient processes, limiting its ability to compete effectively in the global market.
Capital One’s AWS Security and Compliance Success Story — Buried in Regulations
Capital One, a major financial institution, needed to enhance its security and regulatory compliance to meet the rigorous standards of the finance industry.
Capital One migrated to AWS, implementing Amazon VPC, AWS Shield, and AWS WAF to strengthen security measures and meet strict compliance requirements. This migration enabled them to better protect customer data and improve their security posture.
Without AWS, Capital One would have needed to invest heavily in on-premise security infrastructure and manage complex compliance requirements internally.
