The Challenge

  • Speed up development times and optimize costs, so as to boost business productivity.
  • Overcome the limits of the old, rigid, barely-automated legacy infrastructure which was thus difficult to manage.
  • Free the DevOps team from tasks such as capacity planning, backup, hardware update management and all activities with low added value.

The Solution

  • Implementation of an automated hybrid infrastructure, orchestrated using opensource tools
  • Adoption of services such as Amazon Route 53 for the advanced management of DNS, Amazon CloudFront for a very low latency distribution of content AWS Certificate Manager to instantly obtain SSL certificates.
  • Use of Amazon EC2 to get computing power, Amazon S3 for durable, reliable, and efficient storage and spot instances for maximum cost optimization.

About beSharp and AWS

beSharp accompanied SeatPG along the entire Cloud migration process, according to the best practices indicated in the AWS Well-Architected Framework.

Based on SeatPG’s business needs, beSharp created a hybrid architecture, obtained from the combination of AWS services with services provided through the pre-existing data center, all orchestrated and automated using open-source tools.

Geographical redundancy has ensured very high uptime levels, while the granularity of the infrastructure allowed a strong level of customization.

beSharp’s Cloud Experts joined the internal development team during the project’s implementation and used on-the-job training to allow the team to independently manage the new infrastructure.
