Working with AWS technology has enabled Eddy  to optimize costs in many areas. By using Elasticsearch, for example, the company has reduced the number of Amazon EC2 instances. By refining the way it uses the AWS services, Eddy has reduced infrastructure management costs by more than 90 percent. More than 60 percent of cost benefits have come from using the AWS on-demand core infrastructure, and fully managed relational database services.

AWS Services Used:

- RDS was used for the database.
- Redis cluster foruser sessions and caching layer
- Cloudfront for caching staticobjects
- ELB in order to distribute the load across multiple frontendsservers
- Auto Scaling Groups were set up in order to scale up and down as demand changes
