Case Study: VGW achieves faster, secure cloud data migration with Mechanical Rock

An automated data pipeline allowing repeatable and secure data transfer across the globe

VGW, an innovative and highly profitable game design workshop, needed to migrate 15TB of data across AWS regions and build a unified data platform to support its rapid growth. Their existing infrastructure was outpaced by the volume of traffic and the demands of analytics. They turned to vendor Mechanical Rock to deliver a seamless, scalable, and repeatable solution for this cloud data migration.

Mechanical Rock implemented a custom automated pipeline using AWS services, infrastructure-as-code, and continuous delivery. The solution included an Apache Airflow data pipeline and automated Redshift provisioning. This provided VGW with a serverless platform that enhanced security, ensured visible compliance, and reduced data latency from hours to minutes. Mechanical Rock delivered a repeatable framework for future migrations with minimal operational overhead.
