Challenges
The client’s x86 infrastructure was becoming increasingly expensive to operate due to the fluctuating nature of their workloads. Maintaining a fleet of traditional x86 servers for peak loads was cost-prohibitive. Also, the high power consumption associated with x86 servers was a significant concern. The client sought to improve energy efficiency and reduce its environmental impact.
To deliver a responsive and seamless shopping experience, the client needed a solution that could handle the variable demands of their e-commerce platform efficiently.
Searce Solution
Searce, an AWS partner with a proven track record in cloud solutions, recommended migrating the client’s workloads to AWS Graviton architecture, specifically leveraging the Graviton2 processors. The proposed solution included the following key elements:
- AWS Graviton Instances: Searce proposed a migration strategy that involved transitioning the client’s workloads to AWS Graviton-based EC2 instances. Graviton2 processors offered the promise of cost savings and improved performance efficiency, making them a compelling choice for the client’s use case.
- Optimized AMIs: Searce customized Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) to ensure compatibility and optimal performance on Graviton architecture. This step ensured a seamless transition and minimal disruption to the client’s operations.
- Performance Testing: Before the migration, Searce conducted rigorous performance testing to ensure that the Graviton-based instances could meet the client’s requirements. This testing included simulating peak loads and real-world scenarios to verify performance and reliability.
Business Outcome
- Cost Savings and Environmental Impact: Migrating to AWS Graviton architecture resulted in substantial cost savings for the client. The energy-efficient Graviton2 processors reduced power consumption and positively impacted the client’s bottom line. Additionally, the client’s reduced carbon footprint aligned with their commitment to sustainability.
- Performance and Scalability: The client’s e-commerce platform experienced a significant boost in performance and scalability. AWS Graviton2 instances provided the necessary power to handle variable workloads with ease. The client could now seamlessly scale resources to accommodate peak traffic during seasonal sales events.
- Reliability and Availability: With the Graviton architecture’s high availability features and robust redundancy, the client’s e-commerce platform achieved greater resilience. Downtime was minimized, ensuring a seamless shopping experience for their customers, even during surges in demand.
Migrating to AWS Graviton architecture enabled our client to address their cost challenges, improve performance, and enhance their commitment to sustainability. Searce’s expertise in designing and implementing the migration plan ensured a smooth transition and delivered tangible benefits to the client’s business. The success of this migration project underlines the potential of AWS Graviton architecture for businesses seeking to optimize their cloud infrastructure.
