Challenges

  • High Availability and Scalability challenges
  • Design of a High Availability architecture that would address Business Continuity and Security concerns of international clients

Solution

  • Migration to AWS Cloud in a phased manner
  • Design and implementation of a high availability infrastructure and infrastructure degradation
  • Cost and performance optimization
  • Security review and business continuity plan

Deliveries

High Availability:

  • Defined the limits of the current infrastructure in terms of handling request load, scalability etc.
  • Reviewed and designed criteria for limiting planned downtimes
  • Designed and implemented high availability system at a component and system level
  • Tested and benchmarked the implemented features of the system
  • Published the results achieved

Security Review

  • Walkthrough of current security processes and implementations
  • Defined the security benchmarks required by general security guidelines as mentioned in AWS best practices
  • Implemented the security features and document the processes for future integrations.

Phase 2 – Disaster recovery Implementation

  • Defined the limits of implemented High Availability architecture and current disaster recovery processes
  • Designed and implemented Disaster Recovery (DR) architecture at a component and system level
  • Tested the implemented features of the system, against best practices
  • Documented the achieved results
