About Dataswitcher
Meet DataSwitcher, the global leader in data conversions for accounting software. When you're handling sensitive financial data across the globe, your infrastructure needs to be bulletproof. Founder John Schrijvers shared how ElasticScale helped them build an infrastructure as robust as their ambitions.
The Challenge: Simplifying Complexity, Scaling Globally
"We take what users see as rocket science and make it child's play," John explains. "And we do it worldwide, even for the big dogs in software. That puts our digital infrastructure through its paces."
But it wasn't just about impressing clients. John knew that top-notch infrastructure was the key to unlocking DataSwitcher's true potential:
"We learned the hard way that outdated infrastructure is like driving with the handbrake on. You want your team in the fast lane, focused on building killer features and conquering new markets. That's why we called in the cavalry – ElasticScale."
The Solution: Cloud Power, Unleashed
Enter ES Foundation. DataSwitcher now runs on a powerhouse combo of ECS Fargate and Serverless EC2, with MongoDB Cloud handling the heavy lifting on data. And because security is non-negotiable, they've got Cloudflare Zero Trust and HashiCorp Vault standing guard.
The result? An infrastructure that purrs like a well-oiled machine. "We're talking thousands of conversions without breaking a sweat," John boasts. "And the best part? We only pay when the gears are turning. It feels like you’re the owner of a free supercar and only pay for the fuel when you’re driving it."
The Results: Sky's the Limit
With ElasticScale at the helm, DataSwitcher's infrastructure is no longer just keeping up – it's setting the pace:
"This setup lets us squeeze every last drop of potential from the cloud," John says. "Everything flows from a crystal-clear architecture built on rock-solid standards, but fine-tuned to our unique needs."
And when you're juggling data between clouds or dragging legacy systems into the 21st century, that flexibility is priceless. "Our services push the envelope, and our infrastructure doesn't just keep up – it leads the charge."
But for John, the real game-changer is how this frees up his team to focus on what they do best:
"Building killer SaaS infrastructure is a whole different ball game. You can't expect your dev team to moonlight as infrastructure gurus. That's why teaming up with ElasticScale was a no-brainer. They've turbocharged our growth, and we're just getting started."
