How We Helped QL Maxincome Improve Their CRM App Performance and Reduce Costs by 90%
About QL Maxincome
QL Maxincome's CRM application that manages customer loyalty programs was experiencing slow performance on their on-premises server. With a growing member pool, their infrastructure was unable to handle the increasing workload, causing delays in processing customer data.
QL Maxincome oversees FamilyMart in Malaysia which is the world’s 2nd largest convenience store chain, with over 17,500 stores across various markets globally.
They were also faced with additional problems: reports were unable to be generated and push notifications taking several hours to arrive.

Solutions
After evaluation, we have decided to migrate QL Maxincome's CRM app to Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) by replatforming the database. The application was re-factored where we decoupled the architecture into serverless function on AWS Lambda.
To have a better cost optimization, the database is then modernized into Amazon DynamoDB. This not only reduces the database cost from licensing, it also ensures the database is highly available and scalable automatically.
