Comprehensive Assessment to Strategize and Enable Cloud Migration and Modernization for a Leading Insurance Company

Client Overview

A leading global insurer, headquartered in the US, offers a wide range of insurance products and services, including auto, home, life, and commercial insurance. With operations in over 30 countries, the company is committed to driving customer-centric solutions in the space of insurance.

The business needed an infrastructure upgrade to achieve a more secure and scalable architecture that could support the continuously increasing customer demands.

Business Challenge

• Most of the client’s servers were located on-premise, which caused challenges related to scalability and security, hindering the business’s ability to serve their customers effectively.

• Critical business applications, primarily built on legacy systems, struggled to scale and manage increasing traffic demands, directly impacting the customer experience.

• Continuously rising costs of managing on-prem resources compounded the issue for the business.

• Managing existing ESK clusters in standalone AWS accounts proved tricky, as they did not conform to the required security protocols.
