What happened
GoDaddy replaced its legacy business intelligence tool with Amazon Quick as part of a two-year transformation, according to an AWS Machine Learning post.
The migration affected all parts of the business: the dashboard count dropped by half, rendering times fell below five seconds, and AI-powered self-service analytics became available to every employee.
The effort generated 15,000 hours in annual savings.
Why it matters
The scale of the savings suggests that moving off a legacy BI tool can unlock substantial operational efficiencies, especially when AI-powered self-service analytics are put in the hands of all employees.
Fewer dashboards and faster rendering times may also reduce friction for data-driven decision-making, helping teams get answers more quickly.
