No more Global Configuration Drift: Achieved Multi-Cloud Standardization with Reliability & Scale

tradmo
Trademo empowers customers to take critical supply chain decisions backed with deep insights, find new commercial opportunities, ensure compliance with trade regulations, and build operational supply chain resilience. However, as the business expanded and more customers began using the platform, they could not scale the operational efficiency of their platform Every new addition of features and processes caused numerous configuration errors, impacting the platform’s deliverability.

Challenges

Manual setup of their AWS Infrastructure failed to gain on-demand scale to accommodate their growing customer base.

Sub-optimal CI/CD flow presented both development and performance bottlenecks.

Scattered dashboards with limited visibility provided little scope for early detection and gave way to longer mean time to resolution of glitches.

Required a high degree of precision while managing tens of terabytes of data, critical for real-time tracking.

Poor security posture and network configuration.

Infrastructure Preferences

To leverage the benefits of multi-cloud flexibility, they aimed to replicate their AWS infrastructure on GCP.

Future-proofing the platform to make it easier to integrate any new process to support their evolving business.

Required standardizing their multi-cloud deployments to prevent service disruptions from global configuration changes.

Solutions

Seamless GKE setup and streamlined deployments across all environments on GCP via BuildPiper

Managed multi-cloud setup of their environments – Preprod, Staging, and Production across aws and GCP

Ensured consistency and efficiency by implementing CI/CD deployment for all environments in AWS by creating an AMI image of the application and using it to deploy to different environments

Implemented 360-degree monitoring with a centralized dashboard that integrated with Prometheus, Grafana, and Alert Manager

Implemented centralized logging solution with EFK stack – Elasticsearch, Fluentd, and Kibana

Created a reliable data pipeline with open-source tools like – Sentry, Jupyter Notebooks, Jupyter Lab, Apache Airflow, Arrango-db, Rabbitmq, Strap API

Enabled Multi-factor authentication with IAM in AWS, Service Account in GCP, and OpenVPN setup

Enabled data storage via Amazon S3 for snapshots of Elasticsearch cluster, MongoDB, Postgres, Airflow dags, and RDS backup.

Performed complete security audit for finding loopholes and non-compliant procedures

Implemented WAF for application security

Deleted unnecessary ami and snapshots. Rightsized volume size of the servers as per usage

Outcomes

Achieved a 100% reduction in deployment time

Standardized deployments across multi-cloud environments – zero global configuration changes

Gained fine-grained control over scaling events

Ensured zero loss and seamless processing of tens of terabytes of data that are critical to real-time tracking updates

Attained significant cloud bill reduction through compounding cost-saving measures

Easy integration of any service with a few clicks via BuildPiper’s guided UI
