Case Study: Australian Red Cross achieves highly available, cost-efficient cloud applications with Pythian

Pythian Makes Critical Applications Highly Available and Reliable on the Cloud for Australian Red Cross

Australian Red Cross, a humanitarian and community services charity, needed to migrate outdated on-premises servers and critical applications to the cloud to improve high availability, disaster recovery, and reduce costs. They chose Pythian to help move SQL Server–based systems and data onto AWS virtual machines while modernizing their database environment.

Pythian analyzed the existing infrastructure, consolidated and upgraded databases to SQL 2016, and implemented the cloud migration on AWS with high-availability design across Availability Zones. The result was a more stable and faster environment with reduced licensing costs, improved processing speed, consolidated servers, and measurable ROI for Australian Red Cross.
