Companies in the banking industry often deal with vast amounts of transactional data. Whether moving money or making payments, they can’t afford to lose data or permit systems to stop working. Database outages can lead to a cascade of technical issues, frustrated customers, lost transactions, and regulatory fines.
Escala 24×7 is a premier AWS consulting partner dedicated to evaluating, migrating, and improving clients’ infrastructure. Their customer is a money transfer service wholly owned by a leading commercial bank in the Caribbean and licensed in 10 states in the US and Canada.
The customer previously used infrastructure hosted in two data centers managed by a 3rd-party provider. Serious incidents affected the provider and disrupted the operation of the money transfer service. It became clear that migrating the entire infrastructure to a trusted public cloud provider was the only way to ensure the continuous operation of the customer’s money transfer service. However, there was no time to rework the application or database software layers. Lift-and-shift was the only feasible approach.
