Autoscaling to meet peak demand with amazee.io support

Matterport: Autoscaling with amazee.io

When Matterport re-platformed their website on Drupal, they sought a hosting partner with the expertise and flexibility to meet their unique requirements. As the leading spatial data company, Matterport enables their customers to capture 3D images of physical spaces such as houses and buildings to provide interactive online tours and walkthroughs. With the global shift towards moving more and more customer experiences online, especially during COVID-19, demand for Mattterport’s services has never been greater and their website traffic has reflected this growth. With each peak in traffic and pageviews, amazee.io has been by Matterport’s side to ensure their website’s availability and performance remain maximal.  

Challenge: Support Matterport’s re-platforming on Drupal with containerized hosting

amazee.io was recommended to Matterport by their web agency, Hook42 because Matterport.com required special configurations and the team wanted to leverage Docker and Kubernetes in their technical architecture. Concerned about data protection and GDPR compliance, Lagoon’s built-in security features also gave Matterport the peace-of-mind they needed. 

Internally, Matterport’s development team was tasked with learning how to maintain and support the new Drupal site post-launch. Having a hosting partner that could guide them along the way has been critical to their success. amazee.io reliably and expertly help their internal development team successfully manage their Drupal builds and deployments.
