🚀 Scaling for Demand
Handling 10M daily orders isn’t easy. Delivery Hero, one of the world’s largest food delivery platforms, needed a better way to manage its 3M registered riders. Their old cron-job system struggled under pressure. Enter Amazon EventBridge Scheduler, a serverless solution that helped them scale 5x faster while reducing database storage costs by 20%.
⏳ Fixing Delays
Managing rider clock-ins, clock-outs, and breaks in real time was a challenge. "We needed a reliable system for time-sensitive tasks," said Mario Kristo, VP of Engineering at Delivery Hero. With Amazon EventBridge Scheduler, they eliminated delays, improved reliability, and seamlessly scaled billions of schedules globally.
💰 Cutting Costs, Boosting Efficiency
The shift to a serverless scheduling model brought financial benefits too. Amazon EventBridge's pay-as-you-go pricing helped Delivery Hero optimize costs while scaling. The deep integration with AWS meant no extra tech investments were needed, simplifying deployment across multiple regions.
🌍 A Future-Proof Solution
Delivery Hero's global rollout of Amazon EventBridge Scheduler ensures they stay ahead in the fast-growing food delivery industry. "Serverless architecture and AWS integration made this a future-proof solution," Kristo added. As demand grows, their operations are now built to handle it seamlessly.
Is serverless tech the future of large-scale delivery operations?
