Case Study: LifeQ achieves faster time-to-market and scalable, HIPAA-secure health analytics with Amazon Web Services

LifeQ - Customer Case Study

LifeQ is a South African health‑analytics company that turns wearable‑device signals into actionable insights for partners such as TomTom and Garmin. Facing rapid market growth and strict data‑privacy requirements (including HIPAA), LifeQ needed a scalable, secure, and fast way to process vast amounts of sensitive user data without building and running its own data‑center infrastructure.

LifeQ built its platform on AWS using services like CodeDeploy, IAM, Auto Scaling, and Elastic Load Balancing, which let a five‑person development team launch the LifeQ Cloud in one year (vs an estimated two years on their own infrastructure), avoid a dedicated ops team, simplify compliance, maintain 99.9% uptime, and rapidly provision full regional environments in about an hour—supporting projected growth to millions of users and thousands of terabytes of data.
