Gametech workloads demand more than just cloud-scale storage — they require low-latency analytics, massive concurrency, and tight cost control. Redshift, once a go-to, now shows its age under modern gametech demands.

In this session, we’ll pit Firebolt vs. Redshift using Firescale–Firebolt’s benchmarking framework designed to simulate the high-concurrency, high-throughput workloads encountered in the real world. You’ll see how Firebolt delivers sub-120ms queries, handles 2500+ QPS with ease, and offers up to 18x better price-performance.

This isn’t just a benchmark competition. It’s a breakdown of the architectural and business shifts gametech teams are making to deliver faster dashboards, smarter personalization, and more agile ops — all with lower TCO.

Key Takeaways:

• Why Redshift breaks under pressure: Concurrency caps, cold starts, and I/O bottlenecks.
• Benchmarks that matter: See apples-to-apples comparisons on cost, speed, and scale.
• Architectural deep dive: How Firebolt’s multi-cluster compute powers real-time APIs.
• Real-world impact: How Lurkit powers 80K queries/day across 50K users — at 40% lower cost.
• What speed unlocks: From player insights to ops agility — where latency = lost value.
