GigaSpaces Smart Cache Delivers 15x Mainframe Capacity for Top European Car Manufacturer While Eliminating Regulatory Fines

In 2017, regulations in Europe changed and required car manufacturers to produce less-polluting vehicles. Car manufacturers were required to calculate CO2 emissions for every configured vehicle and failing to do so could lead to heavy fines. Customers, dealership staff, and partners use an online web configurator to build and price cars.
 
The technical challenge at one of Europe’s largest car manufacturers was: the mainframe platform that hosts the car configurator had a maximum capacity of 200 requests per second, while they estimated actual demand would hit 3,000 requests per second. In addition, the mainframe response time was very slow, inadequate to support an online web experience.
 
In 2019, the leading car manufacturer implemented GigaSpaces Smart Cache to resolve the bottleneck problem by offloading mainframe requests to its core in-memory data grid engine. After implementation of Smart Cache, over 95% of requests for CO2 calculations are served by the product
response time ranges between 15-19 milliseconds vs. 200-300 milliseconds calculator capacity increased 15x without upgrading the mainframe platform infrastructure footprint was reduced by a factor of 6X while workload scale was increased by 20X, and the solution was developed & deployed within 12 weeks from kickoff to go-live.
