AmerikaPostam Accelerates Global Shipping With Optimized Database Solutions
The Challenge: Data Bottlenecks Threaten AmerikaPostam’s Global Shipping Operations
AmerikaPostam – a company providing international customers with U.S. addresses for shipping and forwarding packages – faced major data management issues when it experienced rapid growth. Its database struggled with:
- Slow query performance (often over a minute for simple queries).
- Frequent downtime and maintenance issues.
- High costs and inconsistent data pose a risk of logistics errors.
American retailers often avoid international shipping due to complex forms, customs declarations, fraud risks. Retailers also require export licenses and SKU harmonization codes, which are hard to manage with constantly changing product lists. These problems threatened the company’s ability to provide reliable service.
