Data Migration from Amazon S3 bucket to new AWS account with zero downtime
The Challenge
Embibe faced issues with a legacy AWS setup that uses a Single Availability Zone, resulting in 70% availability and regular 5-20 minute downtimes. With an overprovisioned app server at 30% CPU, costing $1440, they intend to optimize 4 EC2 Windows servers. They approached CloudThat for an AWS migration, aiming to resolve these problems and ensure data consistency with minimal downtime.
Solutions
- Deployed Amazon RDS SQL Server (db.r5.2xlarge) with 8 vCPUs, 64 GB RAM, 200 GB storage in private subnets, multi-AZ
- Provided client with AWS EC2 Windows Server with 4vCPU, 16 GiB RAM, IIS, .NET Core.
- Optimized performance and cost with load balancers, autoscaling groups. Leveraged AWS Managed Active Directory for user management.
- Implemented AWS backup policy for reduced RTO and RPO. Stored 130 TB client data on Amazon S3, archived after 90 days with Amazon S3 batch migration.
- Used AWS DMS to migrate data from old EC2 SQL Server to new Amazon RDS SQL Server, enhancing performance.
- Employed custom Amazon VPC, monitored services with Amazon CloudWatch, Amazon CloudWatch Logs, and ensured security using Amazon GuardDuty.
- Kept services within private subnets and utilized bastion hosts for secure connections.
- Enforced least privileged access policies and stored credentials securely with AWS Secrets Manager.
The Results
Strategic AWS migration and optimization resulted in 30% cost reduction, 99.99% availability, secure connections, and seamless Amazon S3 migration for enhanced business efficiency.
