Infrastructure problems we've solved
Every project is different. The pattern is the same: assess, stabilize, optimize. Here's what that looks like in practice.
90+ Findings Resolved — B2B Platform Rescued in 8 Weeks
The situation
A fast-growing company in a regulated industry had outpaced its infrastructure. The original DevOps setup was functional but unaudited — no IaC, inconsistent environments, no compliance documentation, and mounting performance complaints from enterprise clients.
The founding team needed someone who could assess the full picture, prioritize what mattered, and fix it — fast.
What we did
Week 1–2: Comprehensive infrastructure audit
Mapped all AWS resources, networking topology, deployment pipeline. Profiled application performance (API latency, database queries, compute sizing). Assessed security posture against compliance requirements. Delivered written report: 90+ total findings, prioritized by severity.
Week 3–8: Stabilization and remediation
Re-architected deployment across multiple availability zones. Implemented full IaC with Terraform — compute, databases, networking, CDN. Integrated policy-as-code scanning into CI/CD pipeline. Set up compliance management platform for ongoing security posture tracking.
Ongoing: Architecture oversight
Remediation roadmap execution with the engineering team. Architecture reviews for new features. Compliance posture monitoring.
Results
- ✓90+ findings catalogued → remediation roadmap with clear priorities
- ✓35% reduction in API response times after compute and query optimization
- ✓Full infrastructure-as-code — reproducible, auditable, version-controlled
- ✓Compliance controls implemented and verified
- ✓Team went from “firefighting infra” to “shipping features”
Sub-100ms Latency, Zero Downtime — Real-Time Platform Rescued and Running
The situation
A real-time B2B platform with strict latency requirements was struggling with infrastructure reliability. Latency-sensitive workloads have zero tolerance for delays — even 50ms is noticeable to end users. The existing infrastructure was built quickly and needed an experienced architect to make it production-grade.
The challenge: stateful, latency-sensitive workloads on Kubernetes, with multi-account AWS and a mix of IaC tools.
What we did
- →Designed Kubernetes (EKS) architecture for platform services
- →Moved latency-critical workloads to dedicated EC2 with session affinity
- →Unified infrastructure-as-code across multiple tools and environments
- →Built graceful session draining for zero-downtime deployments of stateful workloads
- →Established full observability: metrics, dashboards, distributed tracing, log aggregation
- →Managed multi-account AWS environment with consistent IaC patterns
- →Protocol optimization and security hardening
Results
- ✓Sub-100ms latency SLA maintained consistently
- ✓Zero-downtime deployments for stateful workloads
- ✓Multi-account AWS managed with unified IaC
- ✓Full observability stack — from infrastructure to application traces
- ✓Transitioned to low-overhead maintenance retainer
From Monolith to 130K Concurrent Users — Zero Downtime During Live Events
The situation
A multi-tenant events platform needed to handle massive traffic spikes during live campaigns. The existing monolithic architecture couldn't scale, and any downtime during a live event meant direct revenue loss and brand damage for the platform's enterprise clients.
What we did
- →Migrated monolithic platform to microservices on AWS EKS with live production traffic
- →Designed pre-provisioned capacity model for known peak events
- →Built real-time data processing infrastructure for high-throughput event streams
- →Implemented canary deployments with gradual traffic shifting — zero-downtime updates during live campaigns
- →Spot instances for analytics workloads (cost optimization)
- →CloudFront CDN for global content delivery
Results
- ✓130K+ concurrent users handled during peak live events
- ✓Zero downtime during live high-traffic campaigns
- ✓Successful migration from monolith to microservices under production load
- ✓Cost-optimized with spot instances for non-critical workloads
- ✓Canary deployment pipeline — safe releases even during active campaigns
