A leading organization faced performance bottlenecks and inefficiencies with their existing on-premises infrastructure. They needed to modernize their IT environment to improve transactional performance, reduce latency, and cut costs while ensuring reliable failover and backup processes.

Key Steps Taken

1. Assessment
   Conducted a thorough evaluation of the current infrastructure to identify performance bottlenecks and areas for improvement.
2. Planning
   Collaborated with AWS experts to devise a migration strategy using the AWS Well-Architected Framework to ensure a robust, scalable solution.
3. Implementation
   Migrated critical workloads to Amazon EC2 instances, leveraging Nitro technology to enhance performance and scalability.
4. Optimization
   Deployed X2i Instances for memory-intensive tasks to boost performance and handle high-demand applications efficiently.
5. Monitoring
   Continuously tracked performance metrics to identify and optimize areas requiring improvement.
6. Testing
   Verified failover and backup processes to ensure reliability and seamless recovery in case of disruptions.
7. Cost Management
   Utilized cost-effective EBS General Purpose Volumes for storage to achieve significant savings compared to on-premises solutions.
8. Training
   Provided comprehensive training for the client’s teams on AWS services and best practices to ensure effective usage and management.

Expected Outcomes

• 32% Improvement in transactional performance.
• Reduced Latency leading to enhanced customer satisfaction.
• Failover Time reduced to less than 80 seconds, with backup times halved.
• Significant Cost Savings compared to the previous on-premises setup.
