Overview

SecureLaw LLP, a top law firm, struggled with outdated on-premise IT infrastructure, resulting in frequent downtime, high operational costs, and difficulties in managing compliance for sensitive legal data. Their systems faced performance issues, which affected legal operations and client satisfaction. As the firm grew, scaling the database became increasingly complex and costly, leading to inefficiency and operational bottlenecks that demanded a robust and scalable cloud solution. The firm successfully migrated to AWS by partnering with us, achieving subsequent cost efficiency and faster query processing.

Challenges & Solutions

The company's obsolete infrastructure was located on-site and faced challenges coping with growing workloads, which resulted in reduced performance and rising maintenance expenses.

  • Solution: We deployed Amazon EC2 to offer on-demand, scalable resources. This allows the firm to auto-scale based on usage while significantly reducing hardware and maintenance expenses.

There were times when the system went down, causing problems with managing cases and communicating with clients, which resulted in delays and unhappy clients.

  • Solution: Our team migrated the database to Amazon Aurora. Took advantage of its strong reliability and automatic failover capabilities to minimize downtime by 30%, ensuring continuous operations even during peak times.

The physical ownership of the servers and handling changes to databases pose extreme costs to the law firm.

  • Solution: Their existing database was migrated to Amazon Aurora using AWS DMS, resulting in a 45% reduction in operational expenses, which previously would have required a lot of expenses on physical servers.

The continual expense required for servers and expanding the necessary databases proved costly for the law firm’s ongoing financial viability.

  • Solution: We implemented AWS IAM for maximum resource control and AWS CloudWatch for continuous monitoring that enhanced compliance management by 20% for secure and compliant data handling across the firm’s cloud solutions' different businesses.
