Case Study: Grupo JCPM accelerates ecommerce delivery and cuts AWS costs with nOps

Grupo JCPM accelerates delivery of ecommerce platform on AWS to meet COVID-19 needs of retail customers

Grupo JCPM, a Brazilian real estate and media conglomerate, needed to quickly build and launch a secure, cost-optimized ecommerce platform for its mall retailers. This initiative became critical during the COVID-19 crisis as foot traffic declined. Their challenge was to accelerate the platform's delivery on AWS while optimizing cloud costs, improving resource utilization, and ensuring security compliance. They engaged the vendor nOps, utilizing its cloud management service, to help meet these objectives.

The solution, implemented with the help of nOps, involved an AWS Well-Architected Review and subsequent architectural optimizations, including database restructuring and migration to Amazon Aurora. nOps provided continuous support with real-time notifications and automation workflows. This resulted in a 27% reduction in monthly AWS costs, a 21% improvement in underutilized resources, and the identification and resolution of 32 security issues, enabling the successful and accelerated launch of the platform.
