Orangetheory Fitness (OTF) is a science-backed, technology-tracked, coach led fitness franchise. The company offers high-tech group workouts that combine high intensity interval training designed to improve strength and cardio fitness levels. During each workout, members receive multiple readings per second in real time, and then receive a workout summary after class with vitals and stats. Amazon EC2 helps OTF run these latency sensitive calculations to provide OTF customers with the most effective and informative workout possible. Before turning to AWS over Azure in 2017, OTF's growth was constrained due to their technology strategy of local databases in each studio and middleware platform for data aggregation. Since that critical decision to move into the cloud on AWS, OTF has scaled out and doubled their studio count. Using a combination of Amazon EC2 instances, OTF has been able to maintain its growing infrastructure with a very small team. OTF saves time and money, as it can comfortably rely on the capacity, performance and scalability of Amazon EC2 to accommodate over 100,000 daily active users in over 1,000 studios. OTF is able to scale out both horizontally and vertically, faster and easier than ever before, to handle more customer load and support more complex workloads.
