CASE STUDY
Overview

Tesco, the biggest grocery retailer in the UK embarked on the AWS cloud journey to host their new breed of applications. The first was an Identity website and the second a new website for their international grocery customers.

Challenges

The clients requirements were to host a new International Grocery Website and Identity Service using AWS. The application stack was a node.js and docker.

Solutions

We implemented a new application stack infrastructure, network, cloud adoption and automation.

Jenkins pipelines to build Docker images for ECR and update the task definitions to update the ECS cluster with new iterations of the code.

Jenkins & Docker used for creating Automation Test capability for testing the international site settings overnight. Headless testing using Selenium, Chrome Driver, Ruby & cucumber SDET stack created in docker containers.

Results

Terraform automation was used for creating AWS ECS clusters to create Tesco’s first container platform in AWS.

Initially a site to site vpn from AWS to the Tesco DC was created and then later replaced with Direct Connect.

With our leadership, a steer to create CI/CD pipelines for transient docker environments was introduced.
