From On-Premises Challenges to Cloud Resilience

Strategic Cloud Migration Cuts Downtime by 60% for a Liquids Infrastructure Firm

Performance Challenge

As businesses increasingly adopt cloud solutions, migrating critical systems like RightAngle from on-premises to the cloud becomes strategic. One of the key drivers for this transition is the need for robust disaster recovery (DR) plans to meet stringent Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) and Recovery Time Objectives (RTO), something that on-premises setups often lack.

In a recent migration project, our recent client faced a similar challenge with their on-premises infrastructure, which required constant maintenance, frequent hardware upgrades, and significant resource allocation. These issues strained budgets, diverted focus from strategic goals, and led to performance bottlenecks and slow disaster recovery, posing serious risks to business continuity in a high-stakes trading environment.

A Strategic Approach to Project Success

To overcome the limitations of on-premises infrastructure, we executed a tailored lift-and-shift migration for RightAngle. This strategy went beyond simply transitioning to the cloud, focusing on aligning the solution with operational goals, mitigating risks, and delivering a seamless user experience. The following tailored approach transformed RightAngle’s operational resilience and flexibility, ensuring the cloud migration delivered lasting value.

High Availability and Disaster Recovery
We implemented a high-availability (HA) solution for the SQL database, ensuring continuous data access, complemented by a robust disaster recovery (DR) setup with failover capabilities. We established a DR plan for application servers that minimizes downtime, safeguarding business-critical operations and user activities.
Integration with Power Apps and SSIS Packages
The migration included seamless integration of Power Apps applications and SSIS packages with the cloud database. This preserved existing workflows and functionality while enhancing system performance and scalability without disrupting business operations.
Strategic Backup and Retention Policies
To safeguard data integrity, we designed a comprehensive backup strategy for the database and virtual machines (VMs). This included automated backups with defined retention periods and secure storage to meet compliance and recovery requirements. The strategy also enabled faster recovery times, aligning with the business’s RTO/RPO targets.
Scalable and Cost-Effective Cloud Architecture
The new cloud infrastructure was designed for scalability, load balancing, and optimized resource utilization. This architecture ensures efficient handling of peak loads while maintaining cost-effectiveness.
