The Challenges

Excessive AWS resources were deployed without any right-sizing activities.

Rapid scaling and infrastructure changes were happening during on-going migration activities.

Backups and certain auto-heal activities were automated. Right-sizing activities were conducted regarding AWS and instance types to reduce overall AWS spend.

A single-source documentation library was created, escalation paths and methods were defined and implemented.

Weekly calls and change review processes were established to improve collaboration and reduce rework.

The Results

Monthly AWS spend was reduced by 30%, and additional savings were achieved by using standard open-source tools.

The time to deploy average time was reduced by 15% due to improved collaboration and speedy deployment activities.

Support and maintenance procedures were documented, and training was imparted.

Enhanced visibility and awareness of changes during the migration was provided to client executive leadership.
