Case Studies

Challenge

Improve the consistency, security and operational readiness of shared cloud-platform services across AWS and Azure, while helping engineering teams deliver infrastructure and application changes through controlled, repeatable release processes.

Solution

• Delivered Amazon EKS and EKS Auto platform-readiness work, including Terraform module alignment, IAM, VPC networking, ingress and AWS Load Balancer Controller remediation.
• Governed and enhanced reusable Terraform modules across services including EKS, EMR, ECR, KMS, CloudTrail, EventBridge, SNS/SQS and API Gateway.
• Improved GitHub Actions and Azure DevOps pipelines with dry-run validation, staged rollout, approval gates and rollback controls.
• Resolved Terraform and RDS provisioning issues and implemented EventBridge/Lambda cleanup automation for safer environment teardown.
• Strengthened the Token Finder VDI delivery path through Snyk remediation, Azure Key Vault controls, branch protection and Terraform/AzureRM upgrades.
• Implemented Azure OpenAI diagnostic logging through Azure diagnostics, Event Hubs and Azure Functions into Splunk.
• Investigated AWS cost optimisation across storage, snapshots, backup drift and underused infrastructure.
• Delivered an AWS–Azure IPsec VPN proof of concept using Barracuda CloudGen Firewall and NAT for overlapping network ranges.

Outcomes

• More consistent and reusable cloud-platform delivery across AWS and Azure.
• Safer infrastructure and application releases through stronger validation, deployment gates and rollback controls.
• Production blockers diagnosed and resolved across Kubernetes, Terraform, networking, security and CI/CD.
• Improved operational visibility, cost-control evidence and stakeholder-ready technical reporting.

Challenge

Modernize a 15-year-old ERP system and unify property data across 2,500+ global locations.

Solution

• Migrated legacy on-premises systems to AWS EKS using Terraform and Packer
• Developed Azure Data Factory pipelines to process 50GB+ of daily IoT sensor data

Outcomes

• Unified global real-estate data for predictive maintenance
• 99.9% uptime achieved
• 90% reduction in provisioning errors

Challenge

Transition 2M+ active members to a stable, scalable cloud-native platform.

Solution

• Directed a complex legacy migration of 200+ applications to Azure AKS with zero data loss
• Implemented real-time monitoring using Grafana and Prometheus

Outcomes

• Zero system downtime during migration
• 40% improvement in member satisfaction
• Automated scaling for traffic surges

Challenge

Transform a legacy monolithic lending platform into a modern, resilient microservices architecture on AWS.

Solution

• Architected a hybrid multi-cloud infrastructure using AWS EKS and Lambda
• Standardized resource provisioning with a centralized Terraform repository to accelerate deployments by 40%

Outcomes

• 65% reduction in loan processing time
• 25% reduction in cloud expenditure
• 99.9% uptime achieved
• Full PCI DSS compliance

Challenge

Establish a cloud-native foundation for citizen-facing services supporting over 200,000 residents.

Solution

• Led the implementation of Azure Landing Zones and managed AKS clusters
• Advanced RBAC and namespace isolation for 50+ microservices

Outcomes

• 70% reduction in application processing time
• Deployment cycles reduced from 4 hours to 30 minutes
• Zero security incidents

Challenge

Technical agencies and software studios receive client requests, scope changes and approvals across email, Slack, UAT, Jira and GitHub. When that evidence remains scattered, later sign-off, launch, invoice and scope-change discussions can become difficult to support with a clear client-ready record.

Solution

• Built a multi-tenant SaaS platform on Azure Container Apps with Supabase/PostgreSQL and automated delivery through GitHub Actions.
• Delivered Slack capture, email paste/upload and forwarding, UAT paste/upload, and manual and connected Jira/GitHub imports.
• Created the Evidence Inbox and Pack Builder for selecting source-backed evidence and assembling it into a client-facing Evidence Pack.
• Implemented token-scoped public sharing, tenant-isolated data access, webhook-signature verification, idempotent processing and protection against exposing ForgeStack-internal identifiers.
• Implemented Stripe subscriptions, authenticated customer-portal access, upgrade gates and first-share usage metering across Free, Starter and Agency plans.

Outcomes

• End-to-end evidence capture from supported source systems into a client-facing Evidence Pack.
• Multi-tenant isolation validated across accounts.
• Public Evidence Pack pages delivered without login while remaining token-scoped, non-indexed and free of internal identifiers.
• Stripe Checkout, webhook processing, plan entitlements, portal access, cancellation and usage metering verified end to end.
• Production deployment completed with consistent Evidence Packs positioning across the product, website and LinkedIn company presence.
