Windy introduction

This fast, intuitive, detailed and most accurate weather app is trusted by professional pilots, paragliders, skydivers, kiters, surfers, boaters, fishermen, storm chasers and weather geeks, and even by governments, army staffs and rescue teams. The uniqueness of Windy lies in the fact that it brings you better quality information than the other weather apps’ pro-features, while the product is absolutely free and even without ads.

Amazon CloudFront cost optimization

StormIT helps Windy optimize their Amazon CloudFront CDN costs to accommodate for the rapid growth. As an app with a global user base, Windy is using the global Amazon CloudFront infrastructure to deliver its rich data the fastest and most reliable way possible to its users.

Tailor-made pricing plans by StormIT

Unlike other weather apps, Windy has very detailed local weather information on a global scale and therefore it relies on the AWS infrastructure to deliver terabytes of content every day. StormIT provides Windy with tailor-made pricing plans for Content Delivery as well with detailed cost management and reporting tools which ultimately helps Windy with their global expansion goals.

StormIT team has a proven track record of experience and delivered projects with Amazon CloudFront and is proud to be designated as the AWS Service Delivery Partner for the Amazon CloudFront CDN service.

We provide special pricing for organizations transferring as little as 1 TB of data per month and have saved companies up to 60% on their CDN data transfer-out costs.
