1The Challenge

A rapidly growing mid-size manufacturer was completely reliant on aging on-premise servers. Their critical ERP and inventory systems were experiencing frequent hardware-related downtime, and they had zero disaster recovery capability. The lack of scalability was actively preventing them from opening two new distribution centers.

2Our Solution

  • Designed a highly available, multi-region architecture on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
  • Executed a zero-downtime lift-and-shift of legacy applications using containerization.
  • Re-platformed the main SQL database to Cloud SQL for automated backups and failover.
  • Implemented Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform) to standardize their environment.
