Case Study: Circle of
Client Snapshot
The Challenge
High cloud spend due to unoptimized infrastructure
Lack of automation in developer workflows, slowing release velocity
Security practices were ad hoc and required reinforcement
No CI/CD setup for API or mobile application
No automated testing across app components
Our proven ability to modernize legacy or misconfigured cloud environments rapidly
Strong AWS partnership and DevOps focus with AI-augmented workflows
Confidence in our ability to execute with a small, highly skilled team of engineer
Why They Chose Us
Our Solution
Containerization & Orchestration: Re-architected backend services to run in containers using AWS ECS Fargate, enabling seamless deployment and auto-scaling under traffic fluctuations. -
CI/CD Automation: Built end-to-end pipelines for API deployment, integrating pull request environments to preview features dynamically giving developers fast feedback cycles and a safer path to production. -
Cloud Cost Optimization: Through tagging, rightsizing, and architectural cleanup, we slashed AWS costs by over 65%, unlocking budget for feature development. - Front-End & Mobile Improvements: Optimized the static front-end site for CDN delivery and refactored the mobile app pipeline for better performance and CI integration.
Automated Testing Rollout:
Introduced full-spectrum test coverage:
Website Backend services
Public API
Mobile application
Security Hardening:
Applied IAM least-privilege principles, tightened resource policies, and enforced secure deployment processes.
Applied IAM least-privilege principles, tightened resource policies, and enforced secure deployment processes.
