PROJECT SNAPSHOT

Modernizing a Mission-Critical Government Application

The county needed a trusted partner with AWS GovCloud expertise, government experience, and ITAR compliance capabilities to migrate an aging on-premises application to a secure hosted cloud environment.

Client

A county in Texas.

Need

Move from on-premises to cloud.

Platform

AWS GovCloud environment.

Outcome

Secure migration and ongoing monitoring.

THE CHALLENGE

An Outdated On-Prem Application Needed a Secure Cloud Path

The client’s existing on-premises application was outdated and no longer meeting operational needs. They needed to transition to a cloud-hosted environment while working with a partner experienced in AWS GovCloud and ITAR-compliant delivery.

Legacy Environment

The existing on-premises application was outdated and unable to support long-term needs.

GovCloud Expertise

The project required cloud experience specific to AWS GovCloud environments.

Compliance Requirements

ITAR compliance was critical to the county’s vendor selection and migration approach.

Environment Sizing

RTS assessed and sized the existing on-premises environment to prepare for a right-fit cloud architecture.

Secure VPC Design

RTS designed and configured a secure VPC aligned to AWS GovCloud and compliance needs.

Cloud Migration

The on-premises application was migrated to a hosted cloud environment with minimal disruption.

CLOUD ARCHITECTURE

Fault-Tolerant Design for Government Workloads

RTS set up a secure VPC and fault-tolerant multi-availability-zone design to support reliability, resilience, and compliance for the county’s hosted application environment.

AWS GovCloud

Cloud environment designed for regulated government workloads.

Secure VPC

Network architecture configured with security and compliance in mind.

Multi-AZ Design

Fault-tolerant architecture across availability zones.

ITAR Alignment

Migration approach aligned to the compliance standard required by the county.

POST-MIGRATION SUPPORT

Hyper-Care and 24/7 Cloud Monitoring

The success of the migration led the county to entrust RTS with additional services. After migration, RTS began providing hyper-care and 24/7 monitoring of the cloud environment.

RTS now manages 12 large servers, helping ensure the cloud-hosted application remains stable, secure, and available.
