A large retail bank had to migrate its risk management solution (QRM) from Microsoft Azure private cloud to AWS public cloud. The reason for the migration was that the Azure private stack reached it’s end of life. AWS public cloud was part of the bank’s overall technology strategy and AWS was therefore identified as the new architecture.
Monocle was tasked to assist and advise on the overall AWS public cloud architectural solution design and development as well as the automations for public cloud deployment. We were also tasked to build out the dynamic horizontal scaling of AWS Elastic Compute nodes as QRM required increased computing power. We were also tasked to build automated pipelines that recreated a fully domain joined environment from scratch for disaster recovery events. Our Monocle consultants were all AWS Certified and could advise on alternative AWS solution offerings.
