Rapid Infrastructure Migration and Functional Enhancement with Cost Optimization

The organization requires a complete migration of their existing infrastructure, including the transfer of multiple services and pipelines to a new cloud environment, along with the introduction of new service functionalities and API modifications. The migration must be completed within a 20-day timeframe, demanding rapid planning, execution, and system stability to ensure uninterrupted service delivery while significantly reducing operational costs.

A government-endorsed organization responsible for quality scheme certification and consumer protection in the home improvement sector, seeking to modernize its IT infrastructure.

• Successfully migrate 53 services and 5 build pipelines to a new cloud environment within a 20-day period.
• Implement new functionalities and make necessary API alterations to support expanded service capabilities.
• Reduce overall subscription and operational costs by approximately 72%, while maintaining or improving system performance.
• Simplify the cloud environment by consolidating environments from four to two, ensuring comprehensive documentation and operational readiness.
• Identify and eliminate unnecessary cloud resources, including app services, function applications, databases, and storages, to optimize resource utilization.
• Rebuild and test services to ensure stability before live migration, minimizing downtime and service disruption.

• Environment analysis and complexity reduction to streamline migration planning.
• Rebuild, test, and optimize development services, including CI/CD pipelines, in the new environment.
• Implement changes to existing services and APIs to support new functionalities.
• Phased migration approach with robust testing to ensure reliability.
• Monitoring and support for the new live environment while decommissioning legacy systems.
• Resource optimization tools to identify and eliminate redundant cloud components.

• API management systems for seamless service and API updates.
• Monitoring tools for performance tracking and issue detection.
• Cost analysis and reporting tools to track savings and resource usage.

• Migration completion within 20 days with full operational capability.
• Maintain or improve system performance levels post-migration.
• Achieve a 72% reduction in subscription and operational costs.
• Reduce unused resources by at least 39% of app services, 25% of functions, 33% of databases, and 25% of storage solutions.
• Ensure high security standards during migration and in the new environment.

The project aims to deliver a fully operational and optimized cloud environment that supports expanded functionalities with significantly reduced costs—targeting a 72% decrease in subscription expenses—while maintaining system performance and reliability. The streamlined infrastructure and resource optimization are expected to improve operational efficiency, reduce complexity, and enhance service delivery for the organization.
