TaylorMade Software partnered with Western Governors University (WGU) to modernize their application infrastructure and migrate from on-premise Jenkins and EC2 environments to AWS Fargate containers.
We containerized over 100 Java 8 and Java 11 Spring Boot applications, significantly reducing deployment time by 30% and cutting maintenance overhead by 25% through ECS Docker orchestration on AWS Fargate.
Our team integrated Redis, Kafka, GoldenGate, RabbitMQ, SQS, Oracle RDS, and NewRelic into the architecture. We also executed a lift-and-shift migration of Jasper Reports to the cloud, improving application performance by 20% and reliability by 15%.
Security and DevOps best practices were introduced, including Veracode, SonarQube, Nexus, Jenkins pipelines, and Git Bitbucket integration. By extracting secrets from Jenkins and shifting toward a serverless infrastructure, we helped WGU achieve an estimated $500,000 in annual operational cost savings.
