“After the initial assessment, having a dedicated AWS expert backed by a team of professionals for 3 days to work through our main challenges saved us many times that in researching the often complex AWS service offerings to find the best ones to suit our needs. We ended the process in a more confident position having had our systems confirmed as being flexible, robust and secure.” John Stephenson, CTO at Cedus

Challenge
Having built the AWS solution themselves over the last six years using infrastructure-as-code principles, the development team and John, Cedus CTO, wanted to gain outside insight into the architecture to learn where possible improvements could be made.
Solution
Ubertas Consulting set out to complete an AWS Well-Architected Framework Review on the Cedus solution. Starting with an initial workshop, Ubertas covered the six Well-Architected Pillars, assessing security, reliability, performance, operations, cost and sustainability, producing a report showing how the solution marked against best practice. Following the review, Cedus and Ubertas spent three days performing remediation tasks on the AWS environment.
Over the course of three days, Ubertas completed a deep-dive assessment into the security and audit controls already in place, improving security posture and refining controls, work to improve robustness and resilience of the services by introducing more automation to deployments, as well as work to expand monitoring and alerting across the AWS estate.
“Working with Ubertas was a straightforward process and a financial no-brainer... We’ll be in touch with Ubertas again to repeat the process and continue our never ending journey to improving our systems as the company grows.”
