What the Client Was Facing
A national retail corporation was running 150 workloads across 3 ageing data centres with hardware approaching end-of-life. Disaster recovery was non-existent, infrastructure costs were unpredictable and scaling for seasonal demand required weeks of lead time.
What ZippyOPS Was Engaged To Do
ZippyOPS was brought in to design and implement a solution addressing the root causes of the client's challenges — delivering measurable outcomes within a fixed engagement timeline. Our team worked embedded with the client's engineers throughout the entire project.
How We Solved It
ZippyOPS conducted a full workload discovery and 6R assessment across all 150 workloads. We designed an AWS multi-account landing zone, migrated workloads in prioritised waves using AWS MGN, and re-platformed the core e-commerce application to ECS Fargate. All infrastructure was defined in Terraform from day one.
Technologies Used

All 150 workloads migrated in 24 weeks with zero data loss
Infrastructure costs reduced by 38% in the first 6 months post-migration
Disaster recovery RTO reduced from weeks to 4 hours
