The Challenge
Jelly Button Games faced significant challenges with their viral hit game, Pirate Kings, which saw a massive increase in daily active users from 1,000 to 3.5 million in less than a month.

Redis Enterprise's high-speed transactions and user session store capabilities helped maintain latency under 25 milliseconds per operation. The platform's features, such as high availability, seamless scaling, and robust monitoring and management, were crucial in handling the massive user base and real-time interactions of Pirate Kings. Redis Enterprise's deep operational and technical expertise provided Jelly Button with the necessary support to manage their growing data size and processing needs.
