Case Study: Nuix reduces costs and technical debt with DNX Solutions and AWS

Cutting Costs, Reducing Technical Debt, and Scaling with AWS

Nuix, a global provider of investigative analytics software, faced challenges with complex and expensive distributed infrastructure and significant technical debt following a period of rapid growth and acquisitions. To support its cloud-first strategy and reduce costs, Nuix engaged vendor DNX Solutions to modernize its environment and migrate to Amazon Web Services (AWS).

DNX Solutions implemented a phased migration using the AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP). The solution involved rehosting VMware workloads to EC2, replatforming Docker environments to Amazon ECS, and modernizing Windows instances with Amazon Workspaces. This streamlined Nuix's operations, eliminated technical debt, and established a scalable, secure foundation. The results included reduced infrastructure costs, improved platform reliability, and a modernized architecture that positions Nuix for future AI-driven innovation.
