Challenges Faced
- Application Challenges: The client aims to migrate their application to the Cloud with minimal infrastructure management involvement. They prioritize a resilient, fault- tolerant, and highly available application architecture.
- Manual deployment:The customer is deploying their code manually as it takes more time to complete the deployment process
- High Cost: Elektrigo incurs substantial expenses due to frequent system outages and performance issues caused by unpredictable spikes in user traffic during peak travel periods or major events. These disruptions lead to significant downtime, estimated at up to 5%, resulting in lost revenue, increased operational costs for remediation efforts, and potential damage to the company’s reputation. Addressing these challenges is paramount to reducing costs and maintaining a reliable service for users.

Benefits
- Performance Improvement: Our client applications utilize a range of AWS services, including EC2, ECS, Elastic Beanstalk, Lambda, API Gateway, Code pipeline and RDS. These services offer streamlined management and optimization features, providing flexibility, scalability, and user-friendly operation. By ensuring smooth application deployment and upkeep, we establish a resilient infrastructure for our customers, enabling them to concentrate on their core business goals while harnessing the capabilities of AWS services.
- Scalability and Load Balancing: Our application architecture incorporates an auto-scaling group and an application load balancer, configured to dynamically adjust the number of instances based on user load and evenly distribute incoming traffic across multiple servers. This design guarantees optimal performance and high availability for our applications. By adhering to these principles, we’ve delivered a scalable and resilient infrastructure for our customers.
- Debugging and Issue Resolution: CloudWatch and application logs serve as indispensable resources for us and developers in identifying and troubleshooting issues. They enable us to track the execution flow and precisely determine the underlying causes of problems, leading to expedited issue resolution. By harnessing these monitoring and logging functionalities, we acquire valuable insights into our applications, facilitating streamlined troubleshooting and enhanced application performance.
- AWS CI/CD: We’ve integrated automated deployment into our workflow using AWS tools such as Code Pipeline, Code Build, and Code Deploy. This implementation enables us to accelerate software delivery while minimizing manual intervention. The CI/CD pipeline automates the build, test, and deployment procedures, guaranteeing consistency and effectiveness throughout the process. Through the utilization of these AWS services, our client has successfully attained continuous delivery and significantly reduced time-to-market for our applications.
- Cost Optimization: Through the utilization of AWS services like AWS Cost Explorer and AWS Budgets, we’ve successfully streamlined cost optimization efforts. Furthermore, we’ve secured reservations for Database, Elastic Cache, and Redis services, in addition to acquiring compute Savings Plans to mitigate EC2 and Lambda expenses. These proactive measures have led to substantial cost reductions and enhanced cost management for our infrastructure.
