Rackspace Technology helps Relay42 deliver up to 500,000 customer data events per second

Rackspace Technology, a multi-cloud solutions provider, has announced that its management of Relay42’s Amazon Web Services (AWS) IT infrastructure is supporting the AI-driven data business to deliver up to 500,000 personalised customer data events per second.

Dutch-headquartered, Relay42, turns data into meaningful relationships for its customers including Air France-KLM, Heineken, Mazda and FedEx. Speed, latency and security are fundamental components in data marketing, all of which AWS provides in its underlying infrastructure, helping Relay42 meet its business objectives of delivering personalised messages and experiences to end-users in a matter of seconds.

Rackspace Technology also optimised Relay42’s cloud spend via CloudHealth, which identified cost savings of US$8,000 per month in the initial months of the pandemic with zero impact on performance.

The worldwide footprint of Rackspace Technology is enabling Relay42’s global expansion plans as it aims to double the size of its European and Asian business in 2021. As part of the ongoing project with Rackspace Technology, Relay42 also aims to continue its cloud-native journey, further utilising the newest services that AWS rolls-out.

Rogier van Nieuwenhuizen, CEO at Relay42, said: “Relay42’s transformational culture mirrors that of Rackspace Technology as we both constantly evolve to meet customer demands. We’re on a journey to provide data at scale with millions of customers and billions of touchpoints. This is all made possible through Rackspace Technology and its Fanatical Experience on AWS that it delivers to us.”
