Management Software Provider
Modernizing Remote Desktop Services with AWS
AWS Migration
Situation
A leading provider of management software for unions and JATCs needed to modernize its remote access infrastructure to support growth, enhance security, and reduce operational costs. However, the organization lacked the internal bandwidth to execute the project within the required timeframe.
Impact
Without modernization, the organization would have faced continued challenges, including:
- Continued operational inefficiency and rising costs due to legacy system constraints
- Ongoing security risks from fragmented access control and potential data breaches
- Increased manual efforts and operational delays, straining resources and productivity
Resolution
The company partnered with Relevantz to streamline and optimize its transition to AWS. In addition to minimizing disruption to business operations, we took the following key actions:
- Migrated to AWS EC2 and RDS, modernizing infrastructure to enhance scalability
- Implemented AWS Managed Microsoft AD, WAF, AWS Inspector, and GuardDuty to strengthen security
- Replaced on-premises firewall with AWS Firewall, optimizing resource allocation for better cost efficiency
- Automated key processes, reducing infrastructure expenses and streamlining operations
Outcomes
- Enhanced Security: Centralized authentication, automated patching, and AWS-native security tools significantly reduced vulnerabilities
- Improved Scalability: Auto-scaling ensured seamless performance, even under fluctuating workloads
- Operational Efficiency: Automation of provisioning streamlined infrastructure management and reduced manual efforts
- Cost Savings: Resource optimization and the switch to AWS Firewall with WAF led to notable cost reductions
- Compliance Assurance: Security and governance policies were enforced through automated, infrastructure-level controls
