Highlights

AWS S3 resolved the challenge of storing massive video files

Effective management of Docker container

AWS Lambda effectively addressed the challenge of executing code

The Challenge

With their existing on-premises infrastructure, they had limitations in terms of processing speed, memory, storage capacity, and time constraints

"When we started analyzing the requirement, we were in a dilemma about whether the automation of the end-to-end process would really work or not. From the start of the project, till the end, the development team was transparent and delivered the solution beyond expectation. For any future AWS-related requirements, I don’t need to search for a vendor. Thanks, CloudThat."
