# Fortune 500 E-Commerce Scraping Case Study | Rayobyte

How Rayobyte built three working ways to collect public pricing data in 48 hours, for a Fortune 500 e-commerce group planning 10M+ scrapes a day.

When a Fortune 500-owned e-commerce company needed to validate whether large-scale competitor [scraping](/products/web-scraping-api/) could meet its volume and latency targets, they came to Rayobyte to prove it.

Within two days, our team demonstrated three separate, fully functional collection methods, and met the client’s performance targets.

- **10M+** scrapes a day in scope

- **100+** competitor sites

- **48 hours** to three working collection methods

- **Under 8 s** P90 response time

## About the company

A global e-commerce group owned by a Fortune 500 leader approached Rayobyte with a request to collect pricing data from more than 100 competitor websites, with total expected volume exceeding 10 million scrapes per day.

As part of the initial proof of concept (POC), the client selected one of its largest target sites. The goal was to prove Rayobyte could collect publicly available data from that site at scale and within ethical limits.

## The challenge

The client needed a vendor who could:

- Collect publicly available data reliably and ethically at scale
- Deliver redundancy and failover across multiple collection methods
- Meet strict latency requirements (P90 under 8 seconds)
- Scale operations from hundreds of thousands to millions of daily scrapes

## Our solution

Within 48 hours, Rayobyte’s engineering team developed and validated three independent collection methods capable of operating at scale.

Our hybrid approach combined:

- Browser-based collection on our own Chromium browsers, for pages that render with JavaScript
- A second collection path for the same publicly available data
- Layered redundancy, so that if one method slowed down, the others carried the load

With three independent methods, the client always had a fallback.

All methods were built around ethical, publicly available data collection, with strict compliance at every stage.

## The results

Rayobyte delivered tangible performance improvements on this project. After targeted optimizations, our system achieved a P90 response time of under eight seconds, meeting the client’s benchmark for production readiness.

The engagement showed that large-scale collection from a complex site could be done ethically, efficiently and cost-effectively, without relying on one method alone.

## The impact

The same methods now support our large retail, finance and AI clients.
