Challenge : Meet high demand from artists with instant payments

‍

A victim of its success, the startup very quickly found itself in high demand from artists on the platform. It was therefore essential to find a distribution system that would make it possible to remunerate artists almost instantaneously. Dataleon, a company specialized in workflow automation and API management, came in to respond to this request.

Solution: AWS x Dataleon to best respond to the Jaiye problem

‍

Dataleon decided to take up the challenge by automating the remuneration process. To do this, Dataleon first started by setting up tests on several platforms, including Google Cloud.

‍

As a result of these various tests, Dataleon and Jaiye decided to bet on Amazon AWS, which holds nearly 60% of the Cloud market among TPEs and SMEs. Thus, in November 2019, the AWS x Dataleon partnership was created.

‍

The objectives of this partnership were quite clear:

• Retain customers
• Suggest an innovative solution to Jaiye
• Developing Dataleon services with AWS technology
• Reach a less technical audience that can understand the solution

‍

For AWS, this partnership was an opportunity to obtain, on the one hand, a business provider on their cloud solution. And on the other hand, to be able to train new players in AWS tools.

‍

To finalize this collaboration, AWS provided the infrastructure with their various tools (e.g.: AWS S3 database, AWS SNS notification) and Dataleon, its API management platform. Once this coupling was done, Dataleon was able to respond to Jaiye's problem without any problems.

The result: a fully automated music distribution system thanks to Dataleon

‍

Once the AWS x Dataleon partnership was established, it was finally possible to automate the compensation system. Everything was then set up very quickly and the workflow was automated in 7 weeks, even exceeding Jaiye's expectations.

‍

Indeed, initially, Dataleon teams reduced Jaiye's costs by 10. As serverless technology replaced physical servers, Jaiye then saw its costs decrease, from €2,000 in charges per month to only €100 per month.

‍

In addition, serverless technology has made it possible to reach 0% of “shut down”, a recurrent problem with physical servers. An external service provider then had to travel to check the infrastructure and this inevitably involved additional costs. Without the risk of “shut down”, Jaiye was thus able to save nearly €3,000 per month in addition, thanks to serverless.

‍

In a second phase, the startup gained a lot in working time. They no longer have to record “stream” numbers manually because AWS SQS technology automatically. They have thus increased productivity with more than 200,000 operations carried out in 5 seconds, whereas previously it took at least a full day.

‍

Finally, Dataleon has set up a secure storage information system. Thus, all transactions can be stored in secure serverless databases.
