A flexible and scalable future for Textkernel through a Cloud Migration to AWS

The Challenge and Its Impact on the Business

This migration was not just about moving to the cloud, but about creating a secure, efficient, and scalable platform that supports future growth while reducing costs and complexity.

Facts and figures

Within three weeks, a complete analysis of systems and costs was carried out, comparing the on-premises situation with a migration to AWS.
AWS environments were set up using Terraform automation, including automatic updates triggered by merge requests.
Thanks to its high level of automation, Textkernel was able to respond more quickly to market developments and growing demand without having to expand its IT team.
Security risks were significantly reduced, and code quality improved as a result of automated processes.
The result is a robust, efficient, and future-proof IT landscape.

"Textkernel has taken a strategic step toward a future-proof IT infrastructure in collaboration with SUE, allowing the organization to focus entirely on innovation rather than infrastructure management. SUE's in-depth knowledge was decisive in this regard."

Success factors

Results & business value

SUE helped Textkernel migrate its entire infrastructure to the AWS cloud, resulting in a more efficient, flexible, and secure platform. By leveraging AWS services and automation with Terraform and CI/CD pipelines, the migration went smoothly and requires minimal manual effort on an ongoing basis.

This change had an immediate impact. Costs fell significantly as expensive hardware and time-consuming manual tasks became unnecessary. The new AWS environment makes it easier for Textkernel to scale and respond quickly to market developments without expanding the IT team. Automated processes also improved security and reduced the number of errors, ensuring a reliable and future-proof environment.

Today, Textkernel has a modern, scalable platform that leaves room for what really matters: innovation and business growth, without having to worry about the underlying infrastructure.

SUE also built a Kubernetes platform on AWS for Textkernel as part of another project. Read that case study: From on-premises infrastructure to a future-proof Kubernetes platform on AWS.
