As the popularity of Digital Chocolate’s social games exploded, so did the company’s IT infrastructure costs. The company had to make sure its costs per daily active user (DAU) didn’t exceed its revenue per DAU.
Social game developer Digital Chocolate presented vendors with a variety of unique needs to potential cloud partners. For instance, due to the unpredictable and fragmented nature of its user base, Digital Chocolate wanted a cost-effective way to perform iterative load testing. Joyent was one of the few flexible enough to accommodate the company’s wishes.
In Social Games, you either manage your infrastructure or it will manage you, and no other provider did more to truly roll up their sleeves and understand our needs than Joyent.

As the world’s largest flashcards and study games website, Quizlet felt the need to build its service on a cloud platform to eliminate worries about hardware maintence.
How its users use the service added to Quizlet’s concerns. Since its users often accessed the site from mobile devices and remote locations, Quizlet was exposed to a far more diverse set of data delivery and network conditions. As a result, Quizlet needed to quickly analyze and troubleshoot any application latencies to tune apps for high-speed page delivery.
Our application performance on Slicehost was much slower than on the Joyent Cloud. We know our application on Joyent Cloud runs super fast – across 100 million requests per week, our average response time is 40ms. That's partly because of Joyent's awesome hardware. We can run the entire site on just three (virtual) Web servers which I don't think would be the case on other cloud platforms.

An eCommerce website saves 80% infrastructure cost with Fengqiyun
We helped Reebonz – a Singapore-based B2C online retailer client – to prepare for future growth. Before it stepped into Fengqiyun, this shopping platform was operated with a managed hosting provider. A major challenge they were facing was that the infrastructure failed to scale with traffic demand. Fengqiyun Cloud assisted the client to build a scalable architecture with our SmartMachines. Benchmark results showed that the new platform can scale reliably with the expected business growth.
More specifically, the client has reduced the computing resources from 240GB RAM (5 machines x 48 GB) for 5,000 simultaneous connections to 24GB RAM (6 SmartMachines x 4 GB). Memcache requirement has also been decreased from 5 x 4GB RAM to 5 x 2GB RAM. These imply an overall 80% saving of infrastructure cost. In addition, end-user latency and growing user numbers can now scales linearly rather than exponentially.

A mobile application uses ONE Node.js SmartMachines to replace a cluster
Before operating with Fengqiyun Cloud, a mobile app developer required a cluster of 20-30 instances on a public cloud to support 200K-300K concurrent connections. This complicated cluster architecture resulted in high cost of development and administration.
Fengqiyun Cloud helped the client to replace the connection layer with Node.js SmartMachine. This modification only took 1 engineer-week to complete all the related code changes and testing.
After switching to Fengqiyun, benchmark results showed only ONE 1GB RAM Node.js SmartMachine can handle over 500K concurrent connections and this has significantly reduced the number of instances the client required as well as the operation cost.
