Heimdall Helps You Scale
Reviewed on Oct 12, 2021
Review from a verified AWS customer
Heimdall's database proxy immediately solved a scaling issue without any code changes, which is a huge plus. It was easy to set up and contains a lot of options and features to fine tune for your specific need. They also provide very quick support with helpful suggestions on how to add redundancy and scalability to the proxy itself.
The query analyzer tool has also helped us further optimize our platform by easily identifying problem areas without additional integration. The entire installation took less than a day from signing up to finished implementation.
All of this at very competitive pricing.

Heimdall's SQL-aware read/write splitting enabled us to use read replicas in our Aurora cluster very quickly with no application code changes required. Also their technical support spent a generous amount of time helping us get the configuration right for our use case. Thank you!
