Why Invenco Migrated From Aurora Serverless v2 to Neon
Invenco, a logistics SaaS company, migrated from Aurora Serverless v2 to Neon due to technical challenges and high costs with the former. By using Neon's connection pooler based on pgBouncer, Invenco reduced database costs by 80%, improved performance, and ensured smooth operations during high-traffic events. The company's serverless architecture is built around AWS Lambda, which handles spiky traffic typical from e-commerce. Neon's pooled connection management worked seamlessly with hundreds of concurrent requests without the bottlenecks experienced in Aurora Serverless v2. Additionally, Neon costs Invenco approximately 1/6 of what they paid with Aurora.
