Case Study - Fonos: Improving Customer Experiences for Startup Platforms

FTI - A Comprehensive AWS deployment partner in Vietnam market

Fonos customers have about 100,000 subscribers and 50% of them access daily from mobile, a system they place entirely at AWS in Singapore. Ensuring smooth mobile application processing will always be the key to ensuring customer experience with the product. Fonos realized that they have to work with AWS partner in Vietnam to resolve the challenges they face when the marine cable systems in Vietnam are down, which increases the latency and data-loss.

Fonos's Challenges

The login and authentication (fulfillment of API requests) from the mobile user side depends on the Public Internet (FTTH/4G/5G) with high CCU at around 1,000 connections can cause lagging and long-waiting queue before accessing to the application, especially during rush hours (12PM-01PM, 9PM-11PM) when the marine cable systems in Vietnam had problem.
When the API accessing the application in Singapore is always short-lived, users often complain rush hour used over the Internet difficult access / long wait. In addition, the data transfer out section of requests as well as audiobook data from AWS causes the bandwidth to increase leading to high data transfer out fee.

✅ Outcomes & Benefits
