Client Challenge

As the client’s cloud ecosystem has significantly evolved, the company urgently needed to update AWS account management. In light of this fact, the client faced several challenges. Let us take a look at each of them.

First and foremost, managing separate standalone AWS accounts for development, staging, and production environments has become increasingly complex and time-consuming, raising a need for account proliferation.

The second challenge is associated with access management. Hence, inconsistent access controls across accounts posed security risks and made it difficult to enforce compliance policies.

Next, cost allocation also required specific attention. Since there was no centralized billing, tracking and optimizing costs across different environments took a lot of work. The lack of a unified management structure affected operational efficiency, leading to extra efforts in account administration and security enforcement.

Subsequently, these severe challenges impacted the client’s ability to scale their services. At the same time, the client needed to upgrade their ecosystem in order to keep pace with competitors in the fast-paced fintech industry.

Why AWS

AWS is a perfect technology foundation for migrating standalone accounts to AWS Organizations. Its centralized management features, coupled with scalability, cost optimization, security capabilities, and a robust support ecosystem, ensure that the migration process is not only smooth but also aligns with the client’s overall cloud strategy.

With AWS Organizations, users can consolidate and manage multiple AWS accounts centrally. AWS also provides a wide array of useful tools, such as AWS Config and AWS Audit Manager, that help maintain compliance with industry standards across all company accounts.
