The Challenge: Complex AWS Migration

Smooth Transition and Uninterrupted Service

After emerging as an independent company in 2021, following a divestiture from a leading financial services company, our customer immediately prioritised client satisfaction when implementing a complex migration to Amazon Web Services (AWS). They teamed up with TEKsystems Global Services (TGS) because of our AWS Premier Tier Services Partnership status. Together, we established a scalable, secure and modern technology foundation enabling – rapid independence while supporting future growth and modernisation initiatives.

The goals?

  • Migrate hundreds of mission-critical applications from legacy data centres within a strict timeline.
  • Ensure uninterrupted service for a global client base.
  • Meet rigorous regulatory compliance requirements for investment management.
  • Protect sensitive financial data and trading systems.
  • Build a modern, scalable infrastructure to support ongoing business transformation.

Our Solution: Migration Assessment Programme (MAP)

Reducing Costs and Accelerating Execution

Aligning with the customer’s priorities, our team utilised the AWS Migration Acceleration Programme (MAP), a comprehensive and proven cloud migration program. After evaluating the company’s technological landscape, we identified migration priorities and developed a tailored roadmap for cloud adoption.

By using an outcome-driven methodology like MAP, our team:

  • Analysed application and infrastructure dependencies
  • Optimised migration sequencing and minimised business disruption
  • Built a business case for cloud migration, including cost and risk analysis

Powerful Partnership: Partners in Application Modernisation

Regulatory Compliance Requirements – Check

Leveraging TGS’ AWS Migration Competency as an AWS Premier Tier Services Partner and deep financial services expertise, our customer executed a phased AWS migration strategy. Not only was the full data centre exit completed ahead of schedule, but we also facilitated a seamless separation from Wells Fargo’s technology stack while maintaining all critical business functions and protecting sensitive customer information.

TEKsystems Global Services’ expertise was crucial in helping us navigate this complex digital transformation. Their deep AWS migration experience and understanding of financial services technology enabled us to complete our migration efficiently while strengthening our technological capabilities.
