Needs
A major financial institution faced the challenge of optimizing its operational costs and improving the agility, resilience, and security of its technology infrastructure.
The project aimed to adopt blockchain solutions on the AWS cloud to record every step of the build and deployment process, creating an immutable ledger that will eventually be audited by the Central Bank of Argentina (BCRA).
Solution
Nubiral, in collaboration with AWS, implemented a comprehensive solution that included the deployment of a scalable Landing Zone using AWS Control Tower.
An AMB Hyperledger instance was deployed with support infrastructure on EC2, as well as APIs to integrate DUMBO with the new blockchain platform.
The services used included AWS CodePipeline, AWS CodeBuild, AWS CodeDeploy, and Amazon CloudWatch for the implementation, monitoring, and management of the CI/CD pipeline.
Results
The implemented project resulted in a substantial improvement in the security and transparency of the workflow.
The migration and modernization allowed for cost optimization, increased agility and resilience of the infrastructure, and provided an enhanced experience for users and customers.
