Out of the storm and into the cloud.
A legacy system held together by patches now runs smoother than ever with our scalable, secure and always-on AWS environment.
The Challenge
For years, this insurance services company ran critical operations from local infrastructure, split between an Orlando-based data center and an on-prem server.
But as weather events and cable cuts became more frequent, so did the outages. Their client-facing systems — built on a monolithic Windows Server 2008 — were failing under pressure. The infrastructure was no longer resilient enough to support their growing needs or meet client expectations.
The Solution
Managed Services Group stepped in to modernize and migrate their infrastructure to the cloud. We designed and deployed an AWS environment with built-in high availability and elastic scaling. Key upgrades included:
- Migrated production SQL databases, web servers, Active Directory and RDP environments
- Ensured direct connectivity between local office systems and AWS instances for seamless, uninterrupted access
- Built a redundant, auto-scaling file transfer system to handle client data loads without breaking
Throughout the transition, our team ensured uptime, security and continuity at every step, moving mission-critical systems without disrupting daily operations.
The Results
The company now runs on cloud-first infrastructure built for stability, security and scale. The new system ensures:
- 24/7 client access regardless of local disruptions
- Resilience to power loss, cable failures and extreme weather
- Streamlined performance across departments and locations
- Freedom from aging tech and the instability of legacy systems
With MSG’s help, the client left behind costly downtime—and stepped confidently into the cloud.
