Database Services Change Points to Growth for BioCatch

“The data points not only to booming business for BioCatch, but increasing excitement over behavioral biometrics more broadly.”

BioCatch has reconfigured its back end infrastructure, in a move that reflects growing interest in the company’s behavioral biometrics platform.

The news comes by way of Redis Labs, whose Redis Enterprise VPC database-as-a-service solution is now being used to support the processing needs of BioCatch’s platform. In a statement, the company announced that BioCatch chose the solution “to overcome the significant database scaling issues it faced as a result of extreme, rapid growth and product adoption.” Redis Labs added that BioCatch’s platform serves over 70 million end users and processes more than 5 billion transactions per month.

The data points not only to booming business for BioCatch, but increasing excitement over behavioral biometrics more broadly. Designed to assess a range of behavioral patterns in how users interact with software and devices, the technology can offer a means passive user authentication, running in the background of mobile applications and web services. For its part, BioCatch recently won “Best Innovation in Securing Transactions” at the European Payments Summit’s Florin Awards, in the latest testament to enthusiasm over its solution.

For its part, Redis Labs is bullish on BioCatch too, with VP Oren Yaqobi commenting in a statement that his firm is “best equipped to help now and as they continue to scale exponentially into the future.” (Though, to be clear, BioCatch still uses Microsoft SQL Server, Apache Cassandra, and Apache Impala for its database needs, as well.)
