Case Study | Empowering Storage Solutions: VRetail’s Centralized Hub with AWS

VRetail Pvt. Ltd. is a leading fashion and footwear brand having its stores spread across Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka.

VRetail is spread across 30 stores in India. Before approaching GoDgtl they were facing major challenges in maintaining the data stored on their on-premises servers. They were looking for a reliable partner who can provide an efficient auto backup solution for their crucial data.

GoDgtl suggested Amazon Web Services to the client to migrate their legacy data from on-premises to AWS for their 30 stores across India.

The Challenge

VRetail boasts a significant presence with 30 operational stores spread across various regions in India. Nevertheless, the absence of a centralized repository proved to be a substantial hurdle in terms of information management. Vital data, integral to the company’s operations, was scattered across these numerous locations, resulting in a fragmented landscape that hindered efficient access and timely analysis.

The consequence of this fragmented data approach was evident in the allocation of valuable time and resources. The process of manually gathering and organizing the dispersed information demanded considerable effort from the team. This not only consumed precious resources but also delayed the availability of essential insights crucial for informed decision-making.

In essence, the lack of a centralized repository not only complicated data access but also had a tangible impact on the organization’s ability to respond swiftly and strategically. The accumulation of inefficiencies resulting from data fragmentation impeded the company’s potential to harness its data for proactive and informed decision-making.

The Solution

In the process of exploring suitable cloud solutions, VRetail embarked on a journey of consideration among several key players in the cloud market. It was during this phase that GoDgtl by Prutech proposed a strategic shift towards AWS services, introducing the concept of a centralized data repository.

The initial step involved migrating client data to Amazon S3, an acclaimed cloud storage service by Amazon. This migration brought to the forefront the scalability, data availability, performance enhancements, and an advanced layer of security through Amazon Maice for Data Loss Prevention.

To ensure a comprehensive approach to data management and security, an ingenious auto backup system was established for all 30 stores. This system seamlessly transfers data to the cloud through our internally crafted scripts, effectively minimizing costs while maximizing data security.

GoDgtl’s provision of nearly 1TB storage space paved the way for effortless scalability, effectively catering to the evolving needs of VRetail’s expanding operations. Amazon S3’s professional and efficient storage solution guarantees unhindered data accessibility and optimal data management, serving as a backbone for the organization’s data operations.

In the event of application or system failures, the implementation of Amazon S3 was further reinforced by Amazon EC2. This strategic move ensured not only scalability but also eliminated the necessity of investing in new hardware. By leveraging Amazon VPC, an isolated network was established, enabling enhanced security configuration and network management.

The inclusion of Amazon CloudWatch and CloudTrail played a pivotal role in logging and monitoring user activities and resource actions, providing comprehensive insights and facilitating resource tracking.

To facilitate seamless data transfer, AWS CLI (Command Line Interface) services were adeptly integrated, enabling the swift upload of large files to the cloud.

The cumulative implementation of these AWS Storage services culminated in the creation of a robust and dependable backup system for VRetail. This transformative transition ensures data integrity, accessibility, and resilience, amplifying VRetail’s operational strength in an ever-evolving digital landscape.

Results & Benefits

GoDgtl orchestrated the seamless backup of data from the client’s 30 stores onto Amazon S3, facilitated by the strategic integration of the Amazon auto backup solution. Further expanding on this initiative, we successfully established a robust data backup mechanism, enabling seamless synchronization between AWS and their desktop systems.

The resultant benefits of this endeavor are noteworthy:

  • Holistic Data Migration: The entire transition of on-premise data to the AWS cloud was meticulously executed, ensuring a comprehensive migration process.
  • Centralized Repository: By successfully implementing these strategies, a centralized repository was established, bringing all dispersed data under a single, cohesive umbrella.
  • Scalability Empowered: The AWS cloud environment provided a dynamic platform for scaling operations, accommodating the client’s growing needs without constraints.
  • Security Fortified with DLP: The application of Data Loss Prevention (DLP) techniques fortified data security, assuring stringent safeguards against potential breaches.
  • Enhanced Performance and Data Management: Effective data management strategies were deployed, resulting in heightened data performance and streamlined operations.
  • Optimized Costs: The implementation yielded not only data management optimization but also considerable cost savings.

This concerted effort by GoDgtl marks a significant milestone in fortifying the client’s data ecosystem, ultimately driving efficiency, security, and strategic growth.

Case Study | Gaja Constructions achieved DLP setup through AWS Storage Services

Gaja Engineering Private Limited is a prominent player in the Construction & Real Estate / Infrastructure Development Industry. With a strong commitment to excellence, Gaja Engineering Private Limited continues to provide top-notch service offerings in their diverse fields of expertise.

Gaja was looking for a reliable partner capable of offering a solution to effectively manage their data, which was stored across both individual and centralized servers on their premises.

GoDgtl, powered by PruTech recommended Amazon Storage Services to the client, facilitating the migration of their legacy data from on-premises to AWS. This migration aimed to enhance the ease of maintenance and enable automatic backups for added convenience.

The Challenge

Gaja stands as a prominent construction company, providing comprehensive project solutions to renowned organizations throughout India.

Initially, data from various departments within the organization was stored on both centralized and individual on-premises servers. However, the application experienced frequent performance issues, while the platform lacked essential scalability and compatibility features. Consequently, maintenance costs increased, and monitoring became challenging. Furthermore, the application’s vulnerability to potential risks arose due to security breaches on the VPS

Gaja encountered challenges with auto backups and insufficient storage space. To address these issues, they sought assistance from GoDgtl. Gaja expressed a preference for migrating their entire infrastructure to the cloud, seeking enhanced performance and high availability. Additionally, they required a solution to ensure regular backups for 50 systems.

The Solution

GoDgtl by PruTech, presented a complete cloud migration solution, which involved transferring their entire infrastructure to the cloud. We ensured higher availability and improved performance by hosting their data and crucial resources on different servers.

To further enhance their cloud storage capabilities and ensure automatic backups for 50 systems, we leveraged AWS Cloud Storage services. The migration of their applications to Amazon Compute services was seamlessly executed as part of the comprehensive GoDgtl cloud solution. Our team also managed site-to-site VPNs, data migrations, and general security measures.

For effective application functionality monitoring, we employed CloudWatch alarms and dashboards. Utilizing the Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), we established an isolated virtual network to enable easy access and enhance overall productivity. To safeguard against unauthorized access and potential hacking attempts, we implemented advanced encryption techniques, including KMS (Key Management Service).
