BESPIN GLOBAL HELPS CAESARS TO ACHIEVE 60% CLOUD COST SAVINGS AND ACCELERATE
PROCESSING SPEEDS WITH GOOGLE CLOUD AND BIGQUERY


CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT | CLOUD OPTIMIZATION & DATA WAREHOUSE


SHARE ON




EXECUTIVE SUMMARY


Caesars prepares for future growth and reduces costs by optimizing cloud storage
Caesars Entertainment’s Sportsbook App is a platform used by customers across
the United States for online betting. As more states began approving online
betting, Caesars saw an increase in demand for their online service which
created a surge in cloud services costs.Anticipating that high demand would
continue, Caesars reached out to Bespin Global for a supportive, cost-effective
solution. Using BigQuery and Google Cloud Platform, Bespin Global reduced cloud
spending costs by over 60%, and developed a unified data analytics platform in
Google Cloud to generate additional insights and revenue opportunities.






BACKGROUND 

Caesars experiences rapid growth with Caesars Sportsbook expansion Caesars
Entertainment is a gaming and hospitality services provider which owns and
operates gaming and non-gaming properties throughout the United States. Their
app, Caesars Sportsbook, has provided mobile sports betting since 2021. The
sports betting industry was federally regulated until 2018, when the Supreme
Court struck down a federal law banning most commercial sports betting. As more
states introduced legislation to approve sports betting, Caesars Sportsbook
experienced an increased demand for their platform.







THE CHALLENGE



CAESARS FACES SKYROCKETING CLOUD COSTS DUE TO EXPONENTIAL GROWTH IN DATA VOLUME
AS CAESARS SPORTSBOOK EXPANDS.

Caesars was already working with a leading cloud provider to store and transform
data generated by gaming and other online transactions. However, the growing
customer pool caused cloud costs to skyrocket, and Caesars anticipated the price
would continue escalating as Caesars Sportsbook began operating in more states.
While this platform worked well on a small scale, it became increasingly
difficult to efficiently scale as the volume of daily transactions grew
exponentially. The team knew rapid growth would also bring an increase in cloud
management and storage costs.

“About fifteen states had already approved online betting, and several more were
in the process of getting approved,” said Pratik Shah, Engineering Director at
Bespin Global. “Caesars was concerned that the huge increase in data volume
would, in turn, increase costs to maintain real-time transactions, as well as
generate insights and actions.” For instance, Caesars was already spending
thousands of dollars each day just to load the events data and aggregate it for
analytics needs.

Caesars needed to optimize their cloud usage to increase the return on their
cloud costs while ensuring they could still efficiently and effectively manage
the large volume of data they were generating. They also needed to position
themselves to continue receiving increased data warehouse workloads as Caesars
Sportsbook became available in new states.




We’re a Google Cloud Premier Partner and have the in-house skills to build the
solutions Caesars needed. Our team of certified cloud architects and cloud
professionals has the data engineering expertise to get a project of this size
completed in six to eight weeks.




- PRATIK SHAH, DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING, BESPIN GLOBAL





SOLUTION





REVOLUTIONIZING DATA WAREHOUSE OPTIMIZATION: HOW BESPIN GLOBAL LED CAESARS TO
SCALABLE AND COST-EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS.

As a cloud first, data-driven organization, Caesars was already leveraging
technology to generate business insights and analytics, but needed a strategic,
scalable and cost-effective alternative to their current solution. Caesars
tasked Bespin Global to analyze and then present viable solution options

Bespin Global was already working closely with Caesars’ IT team providing
managed services. Bespin Global’s depth of experience and deep employee
knowledge of cloud migration and optimization made them an ideal partner for
this additional project.

“Since Bespin Global was an existing partner with Caesars, the IT management
team asked if Bespin Global could take the lead on finding a smart solution for
handling large transactions for online betting-related transactions,” said Shah.

Bespin Global analyzed strategic options to efficiently reverse engineer daily
load processing, focusing on cost-effectiveness and scalability. They examined
opportunities to optimize the existing platform to reduce expenses. After the
setup of the Google Cloud Platform for BigQuery, Bespin Global’s engineering
team began working on the pipeline build and explored various options to load
the data in BigQuery. The engineering team performed multiple iterations to
optimize the data warehouse workload and cost using fixed-slot options, as well
as on-demand and hybrid approaches, to evaluate and document the cost
implications.







RESULT



WINNING THE BET: BESPIN GLOBAL'S CLOUD OPTIMIZATION BRINGS BIG SAVINGS AND
BOOSTS BUSINESS INSIGHTS FOR CAESARS WITH OVER 60% COST REDUCTION.

Winning the Bet: Bespin Global's cloud optimization brings big savings and
boosts business insights for Caesars with over 60% cost reduction 

After assessing the options, Bespin Global’s engineering team recommended
leveraging hybrid slots so Caesars’ customer team could have more control on how
to use the slots for batch processing and heavy loads.

When Bespin Global compared the cost to build the data pipeline in the current
cloud solution platform against building the new system, the results were
astounding. The new system was 60% more cost-effective, and yet there was no
change in processing time. Migrating the solution to BigQuery proved to be the
most cost-effective and scalable solution, without compromising on performance
or functionality.

“Bespin Global is a Google Cloud Premier Partner and has the in-house skills to
provide work to customers on the Google Cloud ecosystem,” said Shah. “Our team
of certified cloud architects and cloud professionals had the expertise and
experienced resources to get Caesars’ project done in eight weeks.”

Along with cost savings from moving to Google Cloud, Caesars’ business team can
use the data generated from BigQuery to better understand user patterns.





FUTURE



FUTURE SUCCESS: BESPIN GLOBAL PROVIDES CONTINUED SUPPORT TO CAESARS AS THEY
MIGRATE TO GOOGLE CLOUD DATA PLATFORM.

Bespin Global, in collaboration with the Google Cloud Training Team, continues
to support Caesars as they fully migrate to the new solution. “We are enabling
Caesars’ technical team to make sure they understand the solution and the new
platform,” said Shah. “The Google Cloud Training Team will work closely with
Caesars’ team to understand what level of training is required and will provide
them with a custom training plan.”

Once the migration project is complete, Caesars and Bespin Global will continue
working together to optimize Caesars’ cloud spend and give them better
management of IT resources and processes with the Google Cloud data platform.



At Bespin Global, we’re an outcome-based organization. We’re not a company that
works to get a project mostly completed—we go all the way. We understand the
risks and we take them to get the work done in the shortest time possible so
companies like Caesars don’t need to spend time on getting the work staged out.
