About the customer
The Challenges
The Akseleran cloud migration project faces several critical challenges that must be addressed to ensure a successful transition to cloud infrastructure. Chief among these is regulatory compliance, as Akseleran operates within the highly regulated Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector. Adhering to Indonesian regulations and internal standard operating procedures (SOPs) is essential, as any deviation could result in severe consequences.
Another major challenge is the seamless integration of new cloud solutions with existing Cloud systems. Ensuring uninterrupted operations during this integration is crucial, particularly given the intricate nature of both cloud and legacy systems. Security concerns further complicate the transition, as implementing secure transactions and maintaining data privacy are paramount in the financial sector. This necessitates the deployment of robust security measures, such as Web Application Firewalls, to safeguard sensitive information and ensure compliance with industry standards. Additionally, the need for skill development is critical. Akseleran must invest in knowledge transfer to build internal capabilities for managing and operating the new cloud infrastructure, necessitating effective training programs and ongoing support.
Lastly, Akseleran must tackle performance and reliability challenges, aiming to achieve a minimum service level agreement (SLA) of 99.9%. Maintaining high availability and optimal performance of cloud services is particularly demanding during the transition phase, where unforeseen issues may arise. Cost management also plays a critical role, optimising cloud spending while ensuring that the infrastructure meets business needs requires careful planning and continuous monitoring. Furthermore, the project is bound by a strict timeline, so any delays in migration or implementation could negatively impact business operations and objectives. To navigate these multifaceted challenges, Akseleran will need to engage in careful planning, collaborate effectively with partners, and provide ongoing support throughout the transition process.
The Solutions
The solutions for the Akseleran project, developed in collaboration with Devoteam G Cloud Indonesia and Google Cloud Indonesia, focus on a well-structured cloud migration strategy to ensure a smooth transition and improved operational efficiency. This careful transition will allow Akseleran to reconfigure its core services to the maximum capacity on the Google Cloud, ensuring that the infrastructure is tailored to meet the specific needs of the business. Additionally, the adoption of a microservices architecture is integral to this strategy, as it facilitates scalability and flexibility, enabling Akseleran to implement easier updates and maintenance of their applications.
Security is a top priority in the BFSI sector, and the proposed solutions include robust security implementations such as the deployment of a Web Application Firewall (WAF) through Google Cloud Armor. This will protect applications from various threats and ensure secure transactions. Furthermore, the use of Google Cloud Load Balancer and Cloud CDN will enhance both performance and reliability, ensuring that Akseleran’s services remain accessible and efficient. To support the infrastructure setup, a well-architected Google Cloud Platform landing zone will be established, incorporating essential services like Google Kubernetes Engine, Compute Engine, and Cloud SQL. Additionally, traffic scrubbing solutions will be deployed to mitigate DDoS attacks, thereby safeguarding data integrity and availability. Training and knowledge transfer are essential for the long-term success of the cloud migration. Devoteam G Cloud will provide training for Akseleran’s internal teams, equipping them with the skills to effectively manage and operate the new cloud infrastructure.
The project will also prioritise monitoring and optimization using Google Cloud’s monitoring and logging tools, allowing for proactive management of performance, usage, and security. Continuous collaboration between Devoteam G Cloud and Google Cloud Indonesia will offer ongoing technical support, best practices, and advisory services throughout the project. These solutions are designed to not only ensure a seamless cloud transition but also to enhance Akseleran’s operational capabilities while maintaining regulatory compliance.
The Results
The Akseleran project, in collaboration with Devoteam G Cloud Indonesia and Google Cloud Indonesia, successfully migrated applications to Google Cloud while ensuring regulatory compliance. The pilot project improved application performance and scalability through a microservices architecture and Google Cloud Platform services. A robust security framework, including Cloud Armor, effectively mitigated threats like DDoS attacks.
The Google Cloud Platform landing zone optimised resource usage, leading to cost efficiency. Training from Devoteam G Cloud equipped Akseleran’s team with essential cloud management skills. Ongoing collaboration provided support and best practices, ultimately achieving compliance with Indonesian BFSI regulations and modernising Akseleran’s infrastructure for enhanced security and operational efficiency.
We started our ride with Google Cloud recently, while the ride was a roller coaster in the beginning, Devoteam helped us well to overcome challenges and improvize architecture using Google Cloud Platform services. This straetegic move aligns with our vision for growth and excited us to subscribe with 3 year commitment with google and devoteam.
