Scaling Customer Base and Optimizing Employee Workload with Development
Challenges
Limited Scalability in Existing Infrastructure
Relying on legacy solutions hindered the company’s ability to meet increasing customer demand and scale efficiently.
Lack of Desired Features & Flexibility
The previous environment limited innovation, making it harder to rapidly introduce new functionalities and meet evolving business requirements.
High Operational Costs
Inefficient resource allocation and reliance on costly services inflated operational expenses and constrained the company’s growth potential.
Complex Kubernetes Workloads
Optimizing Kubernetes-based deployments required specialized solutions to ensure reliable performance, simplified management, and seamless updates.
Approach
Migrating to a Feature-Rich, Cloud-Native Platform for Sustainable Growth
Applaudo collaborated with the mortgage lender to migrate their existing infrastructure from GCP to AWS, introducing a modern, cloud-native environment. Through careful planning, testing, and deployment, we integrated Kubernetes-based workloads into AWS, leveraging cloud-native tools to streamline operations, ensure high availability, and maintain consistent performance.
Our approach focused on delivering a more scalable architecture that readily accommodated growth and rapidly introduced new features. By optimizing resource allocation and enabling self-service capabilities, employees gained efficient workflows, reduced overhead, and more time to innovate. This holistic transformation paved the way for long-term success and sustainable expansion.
