The Challenge
Addressing growth with a more flexible and scalable infrastructure for the AWS Cloud.
Textkernel faced the challenge of supporting their annual growth and demanding business needs. They needed a more flexible and scalable infrastructure solution based on the AWS cloud. Their current co-located, self-hosted infrastructure spread across four data centers became unsustainable due to technical debts and high costs in hardware and IT labor, leading to an overloaded IT team.
The Solution
Revolutionizing Textkernel’s AWS deployment through complete Terraform automation.
SUE fully automated the deployment of the AWS environment for Textkernel using Terraform. The Terraform code is managed with CI/CD pipelines in GitLab to ensure code quality. This process also automates updates within the environment through merge requests, ensuring the environment is automatically equipped with the latest software without manual intervention from engineers.
