Case Study: Herff Jones achieves scalable cloud modernization with CleanSlate Technology Group

Herff Jones cuts new environment setup to 1 hour with CleanSlate Technology Group

CleanSlate Technology Group partnered with Herff Jones, a century-old manufacturer of student achievement products, to address critical challenges from aging legacy systems. Herff Jones faced substandard DevOps practices, an imminent failure of its flagship revenue-generating web application, and an aging, failure-prone data center, all of which threatened operations and customer satisfaction.

CleanSlate Technology Group migrated the legacy systems to AWS and modernized the critical application. They introduced modern cloud DevOps and CI/CD processes, enabling automated deployments and the ability to spin up new non-production environments in just one hour instead of weeks. The vendor successfully completed a 20TB database migration with zero data loss and no production outages, ensuring future scalability and a significantly improved user experience for Herff Jones customers.
