SiteGround used Google Cloud and DORA principles, embracing automation, agile practices, and a generative cultural approach, to improve deployment speeds, failure rates, and reliability.
SiteGround wanted to move beyond its legacy infrastructure to scale, innovate, and respond faster to customer needs. Recognizing the limitations of their monolithic architecture, SiteGround adopted a cloud-native approach, gradually refactoring their applications. Their multi-phase transformation also involved implementing DORA principles to optimize their development processes. This transition allowed them to achieve greater flexibility, scalability, and resilience. They embraced Google Cloud's managed services, including Cloud SQL for their databases and Memorystore for caching, freeing their teams from the burden of infrastructure management and allowing them to focus on delivering core business value.
SiteGround chose Google Cloud for its fully managed services, which streamline operations and reduce the overhead of infrastructure management. Google Cloud helped them modernize and scale faster. This compatibility allowed for seamless integration into their development workflows. Meanwhile, Cloud Armor protects their sensitive data, and Google Cloud’s extensive global network of data centers enhance disaster recovery and business continuity. All of this provides peace of mind that customers’ websites will continue running even in unforeseen circumstances.
SiteGround is one of the global web hosting leaders with a unique strategy for building innovative products and technologies, currently powering over 3 million domains worldwide.
