The Challenge

As Devyx expanded its operations and client base, the limitations of its existing infrastructure hosted on Microsoft Azure became increasingly apparent. The monolithic structure—where all environments were concentrated in a single account—led to challenges in scalability, performance optimization, and cost management. Specifically:

Scalability and PerformanceThe existing setup struggled to efficiently handle the growing workload, leading to performance bottlenecks that could impact client satisfaction.

AgilityUma infraestrutura mais flexível era essencial para se adaptar rapidamente aos objetivos de negócios em mudança e às demandas do mercado.

Cost ManagementSharing the same infrastructure across all environments made it difficult to control and predict costs. The lack of granular cost tracking hindered effective budgeting and financial planning.

Application AdaptationRecognizing these challenges, Devyx sought a solution that would not only address their immediate needs but also provide a foundation for future growth.

Reconhecendo esses desafios, a Devyx buscou uma solução que não apenas abordasse suas necessidades imediatas, mas também proporcionasse uma base para o crescimento futuro.

The Solution

Elevata partnered with Devyx to architect a comprehensive migration strategy to Amazon Web Services (AWS). The approach was multifaceted: Elevata partnered with Devyx to architect a comprehensive migration strategy to Amazon Web Services (AWS). The approach was multifaceted:

The project began with the Elevata Compass Assessment, an in-depth evaluation aligned with the six dimensions of the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework:

O projeto começou com a Avaliação Elevata Compass, uma avaliação aprofundada alinhada aos seis aspectos do AWS Cloud Adoption Framework:

Business: Aligning IT strategy with business goals.
People: Ensuring the team is prepared for the transition.
Governance: Establishing policies for cost management and compliance.
Platform: Designing the technical architecture.
Security: Implementing robust security measures.
Operations: Streamlining operational processes.

This assessment identified capability gaps and informed the development of a detailed Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) model, providing Devyx with clear insights into the benefits and costs associated with the migration.

Building a Robust Operational Foundation

Addressing the identified gaps, Elevata:

Established a Scalable Infrastructure: Migrated services to AWS using Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) for container orchestration, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) for scalable computing power, and Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) for PostgreSQL to manage relational databases efficiently.
Enhanced Application Integration: Collaborated with Devyx’s development team to refactor the application using the AWS Software Development Kit (SDK), ensuring seamless interaction with AWS services.
Implemented Multi-Account Strategy: Introduced a multi-account architecture to segregate development, pre-production, and production environments. This segregation enhanced security and compliance while allowing for isolated testing and deployment pipelines.

Improving Cost Management and Security

Cost Transparency and Reduction: Leveraged AWS's cost management tools to gain granular visibility into resource consumption. This transparency led to an 18% reduction in operational costs compared to Azure.
Role-Based Access ControlImplemented fine-grained access policies to ensure that users had appropriate permissions based on their roles, significantly enhancing the security posture.

The Results

Enhanced Scalability and PerformanceThe new infrastructure effortlessly handles increased workloads, ensuring high performance and reliability for clients.

Greater AgilityO ambiente flexível da AWS permite que a Devyx se adapte rapidamente às necessidades de negócios em mudança e acelere a inovação.

Improved SecurityControles de acesso baseados em funções e segregação de ambientes fortaleceram a segurança, protegendo dados e aplicações sensíveis.

Cost EfficiencyWith better cost predictability and an 18% reduction in expenses, Devyx can allocate resources more effectively

Streamlined Operationshe collaboration between Elevata and Devyx's development team has optimized application performance and integration with cloud services.

Conclusion

Elevata's strategic migration and optimization of Devyx's cloud infrastructure have positioned the company for sustained success. By addressing critical challenges and implementing robust solutions, Devyx now operates with greater efficiency, security, and financial prudence. This transformation enables Devyx to focus on its core mission: delivering innovative, high-quality software products to its clients.
