Challenge

A shortage of resources and a poorly optimized EC2 setup led to scalability issues, deployment delays, and excessive infrastructure costs, impacting project timelines.

Solution

Containerized Deployment

Toptal’s engineer dockerized six critical Ruby on Rails applications, deploying them through AWS ECS and Fargate, which allowed for consistent, scalable setups.

Terraform and GitOps Automation

Infrastructure was automated using Terraform modules and GitOps methodology, streamlining deployment and enabling autoscaling to manage traffic surges efficiently.

Outcome

Massive Cost Reduction

Infrastructure costs were reduced by 87.5%, with the main application’s expenses dropping from $4 per hour to just $0.50 per hour, enabling more efficient resource utilization.

Faster Deployments

Deployment time was drastically reduced, with new versions of applications being rolled out in minutes compared to several hours previously, improving project timelines.
