Case Study: Kythera Space Solutions secures and scales AWS workloads with Effectual

Kythera Space Solutions reduces GitHub runner runtime and saves 66% with Effectual

Kythera Space Solutions, a leading provider of dynamic management systems for satellite payloads and networks, faced significant challenges with an initial AWS environment that was unusable for their sensitive, mission-critical workloads. The solution they received lacked proper security controls and network isolation, jeopardizing their digital strategy. They turned to vendor Effectual for a recommendation to execute a smooth and secure migration.

Effectual rearchitected Kythera's environment using AWS-native services like AWS Control Tower and implemented a multi-account structure with Terraform automations. This provided the secure isolation needed for customer projects. The solution enabled Kythera to migrate off-premises and onboard new customers securely. Additionally, Effectual automated GitHub runners to operate during business hours, which achieved a 66% reduction in runtime and cost savings.
