This client faced challenges with their mission-critical application which was hosted on physical servers, struggling with limited scalability, redundancy, and high availability. Compounded by the urgency of end-of-life hardware and a lack of cloud migration expertise, they needed a trusted AWS partner to guide them through a comprehensive cloud transition.

Dudobi stepped in with a methodical six-step approach: analyse, design & build, pilot, migrate, manage, and modernise. This strategy addressed the immediate need for migration while laying the groundwork for future optimisation. Dudobi designed a secure, scalable, and cost-conscious AWS platform, executed a pilot migration to identify potential issues, and managed the full migration with minimal downtime.

The outcomes were transformative: achieving Absolute Uptime™, developing a pragmatic cloud architecture balancing cost and performance, and establishing a secure, scalable, and cost-aware solution. The client now benefits from ongoing expert support, ensuring continued success in their cloud environment. The migration, despite tight timelines, was completed successfully, showcasing strong collaboration between Dudobi engineers and the client’s development team.

Key AWS products used included Global Accelerator, Multiple Availability Zones, Application Load Balancers, Autoscaling EC2 web servers, Elastic File System, RDS instances, ElastiCache for Memcached, AWS Backup, S3 storage, dedicated bastion host, NAT gateways, Simple Email Service, and CloudWatch.
