Background and Challenge Story
Our customer, a well-known entertainment and e-commerce company in Japan, faced the challenge of migrating their whole operating system to the AWS Cloud within a tight deadline of just six months. With approximately 500 virtual machines and services, the migration involved complex tasks that required extensive cloud expertise. The client also needed to develop new features to meet business demands, including online product release, SEO, and marketing.
CMC’s Approach and Solution
The solution approach for the migration project to AWS Cloud involved the following key steps:
1. Comprehensive Migration: The entire operating system, including servers, databases, front-end, and back-end components, was migrated to the AWS environment. This ensured that the previous system was seamlessly transitioned to the cloud.
2. Feature Development: New features were developed to meet business demands, such as online product releases, SEO, and marketing enhancements. This allowed our client to leverage the capabilities of AWS and enhance their online presence and customer experience.
3. Technology Stack: AWS EC2, Lambda, Aurora/PostgreSQL, DocumentDB, SES, SNS, Terraform, Ansible, AWS Serverless, Java, PHP, and VueJS were all used in the solution. This technology mix created a stable, scalable infrastructure to support client needs.
We successfully migrated their whole operating system to the AWS Cloud by adopting this solution approach, developing new functionality to satisfy business objectives, and leveraging a comprehensive technology stack to enable a seamless and efficient transition.
Solution Story
In order to solve these issues, our team worked together with our client to provide a comprehensive solution. The solution entailed transferring the complete system to the AWS environment, including servers, databases, front-end, and back-end components. This guaranteed a smooth and seamless transfer while protecting the previous system’s functionality and integrity.
In addition to the migration, we worked closely with the client to develop new features that met their specific business demands. These included online product release capabilities, enhanced search engine optimization (SEO), and improved marketing capabilities. By leveraging the power of AWS services and technologies such as AWS EC2, Lambda, Aurora/PostgreSQL, DocumentDB, SES, SNS, Terraform, Ansible, AWS Serverless, Java, PHP, and VueJS, we delivered a robust and scalable infrastructure to support these new features.
We kept a significant focus on efficiency and cost minimization throughout the project. As a result, the client’s total cost of ownership was reduced by 60% compared to their previous on-premises system. Additionally, operational expenditures were lowered by 20%, resulting in significant cost savings for the firm.
The smooth transfer to AWS Cloud and the development of new features established CMC Global as a reliable cloud consulting partner. The successful migration of 500 virtual machines and services and the cost and operational savings demonstrated the solution’s effectiveness and solidified our partnership with our client.
