About the Client
A leading financial technology provider seeking a faster, more reliable way to deploy its SAS Viya 4 platform to meet increasing data demands and improve operational efficiency.
The Problem
The company faced significant issues with manual deployment processes:
- Complex Setup: Managing multiple tools and systems led to setup errors and delays.
- Scalability Issues: The platform needed to scale dynamically with rising user demand.
- Security Risks: Maintaining security and compliance during deployment was difficult with manual processes.
- High Operational Overhead: Manual configuration slowed down new feature rollouts and increased costs.
Our Approach
Lauren Group implemented a streamlined, automated deployment solution using AWS and Infrastructure as Code (IaC):
- Terraform: Automated provisioning of VPCs, subnets, security groups, and EKS clusters, reducing setup time and human errors.
- AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS): Hosted the SAS Viya platform for simplified container orchestration and automatic scaling.
- AWS IAM and KMS: Ensured secure access and encrypted data at rest and in transit.
- AWS Security Hub: Established centralized compliance monitoring and issue detection.
- Amazon EFS and EBS: Provided a cost-effective hybrid storage solution balancing high performance and scalability.
- AWS Auto Scaling: Allowed the platform to scale effortlessly with growing user demand.
