"We spent quite some time working on an in-house image resizing solution, but we experienced many challenges.”

The challenge

Zentrada previously ran an in‑house image resizing server that mixed original files with semi‑manual resizes. As suppliers shared links, the system downloaded and stored pictures but became difficult to maintain at scale. With a library exceeding 5,000,000 images and growing by 50,000 each week, they needed efficient processing and a highly reliable CDN to serve customers across Europe.

Replacing a fragile in‑house image resizing system
Scaling processing for 5,000,000+ images with 50,000 new each week
Ensuring highly reliable, Europe‑wide CDN delivery

The solution

Zentrada’s development team implemented Cloudimage in less than one week-reaching outcomes expected of a 30‑week project. Through partnerships with leading CDNs, millions of images are delivered across Europe at high speed. Cloudimage scales seamlessly with Zentrada’s rapid growth, removing the need to maintain a custom resizing infrastructure so engineers can focus on enhancing the customer experience.

Implemented Cloudimage in under 1 week
Multi‑CDN delivery for Europe‑wide performance
Scales with 50k new images each week
Frees engineering to focus on customer experience

The result

After moving to Cloudimage, Zentrada delivers around five million images each month across Europe with lightning‑fast speed and high reliability. The team achieved in one week what had been estimated as a 30‑week effort, saving significant time and resources versus building in‑house. With image processing and delivery now handled by a scalable service, Zentrada can support its 100,000+ monthly members and continue growing its catalogue without performance trade‑offs.
