Exdion operates two core business sectors: Exdion Insurance and Exdion Healthcare. Both sectors' workloads were initially hosted on-premises, and although this setup functioned well in the beginning, the Microsoft-based infrastructure became challenging from a licensing and cost perspective as the need for workload scaling increased. The management of servers became increasingly demanding and complex due to these growing workloads. To address these, Exdion decided to transition to a cloud-based system, where they could achieve scalability without significant investment.
Moreover, Exdion was planning for applications of AI/ML and data analytics soon. Therefore, transitioning to the cloud would allow Exdion to take advantage of the readymade AI/ML and data analytics services, which would allow them to focus more on business development instead of infrastructure management. A shift from a traditional setup to a service-oriented approach was expected to improve application efficiency.
Considering Exdion's current process flow, challenges, and future projects, Quadra’s AWS team recommended Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud as the solution of choice. With Exdion's workloads primarily based on Windows, we could bundle licenses for Windows Operating System and MSSQL Server Standard Edition at Amazon.
Quadra’s well trained and certified team followed a three-phase process for migration from Exdion's on-premises servers to the AWS Cloud: Assess, Mobilize, and Migrate & Modernize. Several AWS tools including the Migration Evaluator for assessment, Migration Portfolio Assessment, Migration Readiness Assessment for mobilization, and the AWS Application Migration Service facilitated this migration.
The transition to the AWS Cloud enhanced Exdion's network configurations using Amazon Virtual Private Cloud and Furthermore, servers were launched as Amazon EC2 instances, integrating Windows License and SQL Server licenses from AWS under a License Included (LI) concept. We used the Amazon Elastic Block Storage (EBS) with the latest SSD-backed Storage volumes.
Quadra’s team also employed a range of AWS monitoring, and backup services, including Amazon CloudWatch, Amazon CloudTrail, Amazon VPC Flow Logs and AWS Backup, improving the company's data security and reliability.
The transition to AWS Cloud resulted in several measurable improvements for Exdion, including:
