Challenges Faced
By The Client
High Maintenance Costs
The existing on-premises infrastructure required significant resources for maintenance and upgrades, straining the IT budget and limiting funds for innovation.
Limited Scalability
The legacy system could not easily scale to accommodate increasing data volumes and transaction loads, leading to performance bottlenecks during peak periods.
Data Security Concerns
Given the sensitivity of financial data, the client faced security vulnerabilities in their existing setup, complicating compliance with regulations such as GDPR and PCI DSS.
Slow Time to Market
Lengthy deployment cycles hindered the company’s ability to roll out new services and features quickly, resulting in missed opportunities in a competitive market.
Our Approach
- Assessment & Strategy
We assessed the client’s infrastructure to identify pain points & collaborated with leadership to migration strategy focusing on security.
- Data Migration Plan
We created a phased data migration plan using AWS Database Migration Service for seamless data transfer and minimal downtime.
- Training and Support
After migration, we delivered tailored training sessions for the client’s IT staff to help them manage the new cloud environment effectively.
- Cloud Architecture Design
Our team created a multi-cloud architecture with AWS and Microsoft Azure, maximizing redundancy and availability for continuous operations.
- Implementation of Security Protocols
We implemented strong security measures, including AWS IAM for access control, encryption for data, and multi-factor authentication.
Results Achieved
Faster Time to Market
The client cut deployment cycle time by 60%, enabling faster rollout of new features and better responsiveness to market demands.
Enhanced Scalability
The new cloud architecture allowed the client to handle 150% more transactions during peak periods without performance degradation.
Improved Security Compliance
The implementation of advanced security protocols helped the client achieve full GDPR and PCI DSS compliance, reducing data breach risks.
