A pioneer in Last Mile Manufacturing work, which includes integration, configuration, retail fulfillment, and demo-unit / field asset management solutions, returns-management, and reverse logistics. It also serves as an operations beachhead for overseas companies wishing to configure products closer to their U.S. based customers. It has partnered with its clients to provide cutting-edge supply chain solutions designed to improve flexibility, reduce costs, and reduce risk.
Key Challanges
The client wanted to ensure they were using the best tools possible to support the evolution needed to meet increasing customer demand. Building and running their applications with their on-prem data centers, they sought to capitalize on cloud benefits of immutable infrastructure to provide better support to their customers. Specifically, they were looking to lower the operating costs & improve application performance. They partnered with Trantor Inc to simplify the development and deployment of services with infrastructure resources that require zero administration from development teams and in-house infrastructure support teams. The company realized it needed to shift to an Agile operating model that would enable collaboration between software development and operations teams, including cloud support engineers, with an increased focus on automation and self-service.
To accomplish this, Trantor proposed to migrate the applications from their on-prem data center to the cloud.
Our Solution
Trantor assigned a dedicated AWS cloud migration team to oversee the effort. The team split the effort into two parts, applications and data. For applications migration, the team moved applications to the cloud in focused two-week sprints, pausing on product development. For data migration, teams were allowed to choose between “forklifts” or rewriting options to best fit their needs. Ultimately, The Client on-prem to cloud migration succeeded in increasing scalability
