AN ELEVATE & INNOVATE MIGRATION
Our elevate & innovate AWS cloud migration strategy was a key factor in supercharging the migration effort at EMIS.
To complement the AWS infrastructure, we implemented Datadog across servers, the network, and synthetic tests. This allowed for precise forecasting of potential issues and the ability to drill down to root causes with high accuracy.
The organization faced automation and skills deficits across various teams during its migration to AWS. Our role was to establish well-architected solutions by developing easy-to-use, repeatable DevOps tools and streamlined operating procedures.
