Our Projects and Case Studies

At our agency, we have a unique approach to web design and development. We believe in creating websites that not only look great but also perform well in terms of user experience, functionality, and search engine optimization.

Hybrid Cloud Strategy for EV Charger Network Management

+
-

Challenge: Design a scalable, secure network management system for EV charging stations to handle firmware updates, real-time monitoring, and user authentication.

Solution: Developed a hybrid cloud architecture utilizing Azure and AWS for redundancy, Active Directory for user management, and Azure Sentinel for real-time monitoring. Used Docker for containerized services and Azure Arc for IoT device control.

Outcome: Achieved 20% faster incident resolution, reduced downtime for updates, and ensured compliance across regions.

Global Cloud-Based Data Exchange Platform for Energy Analytics

+
-

Challenge: Facilitate data sharing between global sites, ensuring secure, compliant access to sensitive energy analytics.

Solution: Implemented AWS S3 with Athena for data management, AWS Lambda for serverless access control, and AWS IAM for role-based security. Integrated Tableau for visual data insights decision-making.

Outcome: Reduced data exchange time by 30% and improved secure access, enabling better collaboration and data-driven decision-making.

Predictive Maintenance System for Renewable Energy Assets

+
-

Challenge: Design a scalable predictive maintenance platform to optimize maintenance schedules for renewable energy equipment.

Solution: Utilized AWS IoT Core for sensor data, AWS Glue and Athena for processing, and Amazon SageMaker for ML-based predictions. Set up AWS CloudWatch and Tableau for real-time monitoring and visualization.

Outcome: Reduced downtime by 30% and lowered maintenance costs, achieving 85% accuracy in failure predictions.

Cloud-Based Imaging Platform with PACS Integration

+
-

Challenge: Develop a HIPAA-compliant, cloud-based imaging storage solution with PACS integration.

Solution: Leveraged Azure Blob Storage for compliant data management, Azure API Management and Azure Functions for secure data retrieval, and Azure Sentinel for monitoring. Okta and AD FS were used for SSO and MFA.

Outcome: Reduced downtime by 30% and lowered maintenance costs, achieving 85% accuracy in failure predictions.

Enhanced Backup & Disaster Recovery for Medical Radiology Data

+
-

Challenge: Implement a disaster recovery solution to secure sensitive patient data with rapid recovery and compliance.

Solution: Established a DR strategy using Veeam and Commvault for backup, Azure Backup for offsite storage, and Microsoft Entra for role-based data access. Automated backup and failover with PowerShell and Azure CLI.

Outcome: Enabled data recovery within 2 hours, achieving 99.9% data availability and meeting HIPAA compliance.

With the cloud, individuals and small businesses can snap
their fingers and instantly set up enterprise-class services.

Certifications

It’s not just about collecting certifications; it’s about showcasing the skills behind each one. While I primarily focus on Amazon Web Services, I believe understanding the competition is key. That’s why I’ve committed to mastering Microsoft Azure at the Expert level as well.

It’s not just about accumulating certifications; it’s about demonstrating the expertise each one represents. While my primary focus is on mastering Microsoft Azure, I understand that true versatility in cloud architecture comes from knowing the strengths of each platform. That’s why I’m also committed to achieving expert-level proficiency in Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud Services. This tri-cloud expertise allows me to design resilient, multi-cloud solutions that leverage the unique advantages of each platform, ensuring flexibility and scalability for any business. By mastering these leading providers, I can bring strategic insights and future-proof infrastructure that maximizes value and adapts to the evolving demands of the cloud landscape.

Application Deep-Dive

Application assessment is a guided interview(s) with key application owners to understand the current application. During the interview, various topics are discussed, for example, application and infrastructure architecture, security and performance requirements, operating model and lifecycle, or individual application components.

Cloud architecture provides individual possible target cloud architectures and designs. All designs are evaluated against the application assessment for viability and requirements. Typically, multiple target architectures are designed to cover standard migration strategies from Lift&Shift through Replatform to Rearchitecture. I focus on the modernization approach when possible, so the designs follow Cloud-Native design patterns.

Total Costs of Ownership provides financial data for comparison. Current On-Premises costs are always included in comparison with individual target Cloud architectures. TCO includes not only the standard infrastructure costs but incorporates additional inputs like license costs, application migration, refactoring costs, and shared services costs.

Risks and benefits are documented for existing and possible Cloud architectures, providing additional inputs for the final recommendation. Each identified risk or benefit is justified and aligned with the key application stakeholder.
