Case Study: Judo Capital achieves rapid growth, reduced capex, and 99.999% uptime with Amazon Web Services

Judo Capital Drives Innovation with Flexible Architecture Using AWS

Judo Capital is a Melbourne-based lender focused on improving SME banking by making loan origination faster and more personal. The company needed a highly secure, extensible IT architecture that avoided on-premises ownership, delivered instant access to loan data for relationship managers, and reduced development time while meeting strict availability and privacy requirements.

Working with APN Advanced Consulting Partner Itoc, Judo deployed its production, DevOps, and backup environments on AWS in about three months, using services such as EC2, RDS, IAM, API Gateway, Lambda, WorkSpaces, S3, EBS, and Glacier. The cloud solution eliminated capex and in‑house IT overhead, cut months from development timelines, enabled five‑day loan processing, and delivered 99.999% infrastructure availability while maintaining strong security and the flexibility to scale as the business grows.
