Case Study: Enterprise Backup Software Company achieves immutable architecture, 100% production uptime and 60% higher deployment efficiency with Logicworks

Enterprise Backup Software Company - Customer Case Study

An enterprise backup, business continuity, and data analytics software provider serving many Fortune 500 companies migrated a new project to AWS as part of a staged cloud move and to pilot an immutable infrastructure model. Their development cadence required disposable instances — rebuilding the entire stack on each code push rather than patching live servers — which demanded full automation of provisioning, bootstrapping, package installation, and deployment. To accomplish this, they engaged Logicworks to automate AWS resource provisioning and manage operations so developers could focus on code.

Logicworks implemented a solution using custom CloudFormation templates, Puppet-driven AMI baking, and a deploy script that pulls code from on‑premises sources, supporting a custom pipeline of 20+ parallel tests and hundreds to thousands of short‑lived instances per week. The environment includes automated scanners for configuration and security (being migrated to Lambda) and tight integration with the company’s tooling. The result: a true immutable architecture with a 0.001% instance failure rate, 100% production uptime, 60% higher deployment efficiency, and plans to migrate 6–12 more projects to AWS with a conservative monthly spend of $250K.
