The Total Economic Impact™ of Google Cloud Spanner
Forrester Consulting conducted a Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study to examine the potential return on investment (ROI) for organizations who deploy Spanner.
Prior to adopting Spanner, customers managed their own databases and faced constant challenges—high costs, frequent disruptions, and limited scalability that slowed business growth.
The Forrester study found the following results over three years for a composite organization, based on interviews with customers who switched to Spanner:
- 132% ROI with a 9-month payback period
- $7.74M in total benefits
- $3.8M in cost savings by retiring their legacy environment
- $981K in efficiencies gained in onboarding new applications
- $1M in costs savings from reduction in overprovisioning for peak usage
