Auteco S.A.S Migrates to the Cloud with Flexibility, Performance, and Innovation

As one of Colombia's leading motorcycle assemblers, Auteco S.A.S placed importance on innovative strategies that improve their technological capacity, achieve the needed flexibility and performance in a modern cloud infrastructure that would allow them to manage future projects.

Together with Avvale, project Artemisa was created to migrate all SAP and non-SAP workloads to Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud, fortifying the performance and stability of its operation without impacting its end users. For this project, agile mechanisms were used to migrate SAP systems to HANA. For automation strategies, the self-management logic of SAP application services, infrastructure stored in templates, performing backups, and instance management were implemented.

The Challenge

Utilizing Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) to migrate workloads to the cloud, Auteco S.A.S sought to improve the performance and stability of the applications as well as have autonomy to manage its infrastructure. It was essential to have the necessary resources to implement new technologies and develop projects that provide innovation, a reflection of their strategic pillars.

The company partnered with Avvale and selected AWS with the certainty that these two forces equal the winning combination to help Auteco S.A.S enhance their technological capabilities and prepare for future projects.

Together they named this project Artemisa, drawing inspiration from NASA's program that aims to return to the moon in 2024 using new technologies and innovative systems to explore this satellite like never before.

The Approach

The migration of all servers happened during a short time frame, thus minimizing the impact on users and operation. Even during the process, end users had visibility to infrastructure change. Dashboards were created using AWS Lambda and CloudWatch to offer the most relevant metrics for the administration of SAP systems and the generation of alerts that detect critical events. Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) for SQL Server enabled Auteco to scale their database without complications and in a cost-effective manner while automating administrative tasks, freeing up their technical staff to focus on other goals.

The Impact

By migrating their workloads to the cloud, Auteco S.A.S was able to reap numerous benefits, such as flexible resources that can be adjusted to their needs and optimal system performance. Additionally, the migration helped unify various critical business applications into a single infrastructure, thereby preventing any inconsistencies in processes. As a result, the applications were deployed in an optimized infrastructure that delivered high performance and cost-effectiveness.
