Highlights
Migrated 20+ consumer portals on 250+ servers in an on-premise data center to AWS in less than 90 days
Leveraged Spot instances for non-production workloads and handling traffic spikes on production
Standardized deployment & monitoring across all applications
TO THE NEW worked along with GirnarSoft to migrate its entire data center to Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud to ensure scalability in the infrastructure, application updates, and security patches in the cloud.
Objectives
Enable scalability and availability of the infrastructure in peak season
Implement new-age Cloud technologies and security features
Enable easy and cost-effective disaster recovery
The Solution
TO THE NEW was responsible for preparing a Migration Strategy, designing Cloud native architecture, and migrating each application with minimal downtime. The migration was carried out in two phases, starting with the ‘lift and shift’ approach and later adopting ‘AWS native services’ in the second phase.
Created a well-architected infrastructure as per the AWS best practices and implemented Auto Scaling for all the applications
Enabled majority of the Auto Scaling groups to run a combination of Spot and On-Demand Instances to handle any untimely request spikes in the applications and reduce the overall cost
Enforced security practices using Identity and Access Management (IAM) groups, roles, and users along with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Deployed applications across multiple availability zones for high availability along with continuous backup and replication of critical data on S3 & Glacier

Blue-Green Deployment approach ensured zero downtime
Migrated 20+ consumer portals to AWS in less than 90 days
