CLIENT

Clear Slide, inc.

An innovative US based IT company developing solutions for sales engagement and management that integrate content, communications, and actionable insights to improve business results.

Challenge

Client’s sales engagement platform provides the customer with a microservice for video calls and conferencing with the possibility of speech and video recording. To ensure stable functioning of this microservice, the client reserved substantial number of cloud servers. Their reserved capacity was the same, regardless of the time of day or users’ activity load. This resulted in permanent unreasonable expenses for the client’s business.

The client needed to optimize the usage of server space, keeping the platform capacity at the same time to withstand users’ activity load and reduce the server costs.

Features

Solution

We introduced to the client’s sales engagement platform a flexible solution for real-time management of the server space needed for stable platform functionality. This was done through development and integration of a service discovery and a custom load balancer.

Functionality

The service discovery collects and stores data about the average server capacity needed for stable functioning of the microservice. To enable its functioning, we developed the system and custom metrics and integrated them with Grafana through Prometheus.

Server

The custom load balancer analyzez the servers load and incoming requests for the server space. It assigns performance of the microservice to the server with sufficient capacity as well as scales-up and down the servers when needed.
