Verocard faced two major challenges: improving the stability of its solutions and reducing cloud infrastructure maintenance costs. The company’s solutions suffered from outages, resulting in an excess of support tickets. With UDS Cloud Consulting, Verocard migrated its infrastructure to AWS CloudFront, aiming for greater efficiency and cost savings.
Following the migration, Verocard achieved a more stable and resilient operation. Service disruptions were significantly reduced, and cloud infrastructure availability increased. Additionally, maintenance costs were lowered, freeing up financial resources for other strategic investments.

UDS’s squad of Cloud Engineering specialists implemented an auto-healing configuration for systems, reducing downtime in the event of errors.
This resulted in increased reliability and efficiency of Verocard’s solutions.
By integrating development, security, and operations teams, UDS implemented a security-first culture throughout the work cycle.
As a result, Verocard’s team gained knowledge and was better prepared to prevent vulnerabilities.
Migrating Verocard’s API Security solution from Akamai to a superior AWS-based architecture was strategic for improving performance, enhancing security, and optimizing operational costs.
The load distribution across multiple data centers optimizes network traffic. A load balancer directs user requests to the most suitable data centers.
With alarms configured in AWS CloudWatch and customized alerts in Grafana, Verocard was able to monitor budget limits and performance metrics from a single dashboard. Additionally, we optimized the use of EC2 and RDS by migrating to Savings Plans and Reserved Instances, and implemented Auto Scaling for efficient resource management.
Monthly cost reviews ensured continuous optimization, aligning expenses with operational needs and growth projections.
We also worked on infrastructure adjustment solutions with scheduling: the structure scales up or down based on known peak or off-peak times. Tools like EventBridge and Auto Scaling were used for these procedures.
High cloud infrastructure resilience, with cost reductions and simplified maintenance.
