Project context
AZZORTI (DUPRÉ) is a leading Colombian direct-sales catalog company across fashion, home and beauty, with a data-intensive operation where its Informix transactional platform is the core of the business.
The challenge
Moving the transactional core to the cloud demanded continuity and control:
Migrate the on-premise transactional platform (Informix database and applications) to AWS without redesigning the applications.
Ensure business continuity against contingencies through a Disaster Recovery scheme.
Operate and monitor the environment on AWS with defined service levels.
Our solution
Pyramid executed the AWS migration with a focus on resilience:
Lift & shift migration of the transactional platform (Informix and applications) to Amazon EC2 instances on AWS, without redesigning the applications.
Implementation of a Disaster Recovery scheme with an application and database replica in a separate availability zone (multi-AZ) within the AWS region, for business continuity.
Managed AWS architecture — isolated VPCs, Security Groups, encryption, traceability (CloudTrail, CloudWatch) and backups — with managed Cloud services.
Results achieved
The project delivered a resilient transactional platform on AWS:
Transactional platform (Informix) running on Amazon EC2 after the lift & shift migration.
Multi-AZ Disaster Recovery scheme implemented for business continuity.
Environment on AWS under operations managed by Pyramid (monitoring, support and administration).
