Case Study Summary:
- Customers are demanding easier ways to interact with a growing number of products and technologies throughout the home
- iRobot, which had so far operated primarily as a hardware vendor, was about to bet its central line of business on its ability to run a high-availability, customer-facing cloud application and an Internet of Things (IoT) backend platform
- iRobot began to build out its family of connected Roomba vacuums—and as the sheer number of connected customers and services quickly multiplied—iRobot recognized it needed a solution that could scale more quickly and allowed for more direct control.
