Case Study: Big Red Group accelerates cloud-native modernization with DNX Solutions and AWS DevAx

Bringing cloud native concepts through DevAx to accelerate cloud journey for Big Red Group

Big Red Group (BRG), a company managing multiple distinct brands, faced the challenge of modernizing its complex, monolithic application architectures to improve scalability and development processes. They engaged DNX Solutions to implement the AWS Developer Acceleration (DevAx) enablement program, specifically the "Monoliths to Microservices" curriculum, to upskill their developers and facilitate this architectural transition.

DNX Solutions delivered a structured six-week program featuring workshops and co-development sessions. The solution involved rehosting BRG's application on AWS and methodically refactoring it into decoupled microservices, which included implementing event-driven systems and application release automation. The results for BRG included a significant developer mindset shift, the ability to build a secure IaaS platform, and the implementation of Straight-Through Processing that saved a huge amount in operational expenditure.
