After an AWS outage caused a two-hour disruption, this FinTech client was spooked. Investors wanted answers. Their customers wanted reassurance. And internally, the engineering team was flying blind when it came to resilience.
We designed and deployed a multi-region, fail-safe cloud architecture, conducted live failover drills, and trained their team on DR protocols and cloud ops. Within a month, they passed their compliance review and recovered investor confidence. When the next outage came—they didn’t flinch.
How we Completed
Every company talks about disaster recovery—until the real outage hits. We turned theory into action with a bulletproof failover architecture, then stayed with the team to rehearse and refine every scenario until they were ready for anything.
The Mission
To replace cloud anxiety with cloud confidence by building systems—and teams—that are ready for the unexpected.
