40% Faster Deployments for Genetic Testing Platform with Cloud & DevOps Transformation
We partnered with a globally accredited genetic testing laboratory to modernize their infrastructure and DevOps capabilities. By implementing a scalable AWS-based architecture, streamlining CI/CD pipelines, and enabling secure data management, we improved deployment velocity, scalability, and cost efficiency—while ensuring precision and reliability in diagnostic workflows.
Success Highlights
- 40% faster deployment cycles with CI/CD automation
- 30% scalability improvement using containerized workloads
- 25% reduction in infrastructure costs with cloud optimization
Key Details
-
Industry: Healthcare / Genetic Diagnostics
-
Geography: United States
-
Platform: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Amazon EKS, Amazon RDS, AWS CloudFront
Business Challenge
The client faced critical gaps in DevOps maturity, cloud adoption, and migration readiness—impacting scalability, efficiency, and time-to-market.
-
Limited DevOps Expertise: Lack of skilled personnel slowed infrastructure automation and deployment processes.
-
Migration & Documentation Gaps: Incomplete system documentation created risks around cloud migration, data integrity, and system reliability.
-
Low AWS Tooling Maturity: Limited experience with AWS DevOps services led to inefficiencies in CI/CD implementation.
-
Complex Migration Planning: Required a phased, low-risk migration approach to avoid downtime in critical diagnostic systems.
Our Solution Approach
We implemented a cloud-native DevOps transformation strategy focused on scalability, automation, and secure data management.
Assess DevOps Gaps & Migration Risks
We analyzed existing infrastructure, workflows, and documentation gaps to define a structured migration roadmap.
Design Scalable Cloud Architecture
We built a containerized architecture using Amazon EKS and centralized data systems with RDS and Secrets Manager.
Implement CI/CD & Infrastructure Workflows
We enabled automated build, test, and deployment pipelines using AWS-native DevOps services for faster releases.
Optimize Delivery & Content Distribution
We improved application performance and global accessibility using CDN-based content delivery and optimized cloud resources.
Technical Highlights
- Containerized workloads on Amazon EKS for scalable and resilient application deployment
- Managed relational databases using Amazon RDS with secure credential storage via AWS Secrets Manager
- CI/CD automation using AWS CodeCommit, CodeBuild, and CodePipeline for continuous delivery
- Content delivery optimization using AWS CloudFront CDN for low-latency global access
- Infrastructure provisioning and configuration standardization for repeatable deployments
