Colorado-based Non-Profit Chooses Qwinix Technologies to Optimize Amazon Web Services (AWS) Application Performance.

New application needed to be built from the ground up.
Thousands of users to support.
Non-profit did not have a large budget.

Qwinix engineers built a complete new application from scratch. Set up started in the lower environments, and included a CI/CD pipeline, to aid the deployment process and to handle the huge load on the servers. The database was secured to protect a large number of phone numbers, and the application performance was optimized to correct a history of frequent crashes due to regularly scheduled jobs that consumed large amounts of RAM. The software design experts levereaged a microservice to divide up the services and AWS RDS with postgreSQL to ensure stability. The non-profit’s explosive data growth is now managed by a custom data warehouse built with AWS Redshift.
