Case Study: BuildCenter streamlines serverless development with Serverless Inc

How BuildCenter and Serverless Guru Streamlined Their Serverless Development Cycle

BuildCenter, a company that makes digital tools for builders, needed a way to scale its applications without overpaying for unused resources while keeping infrastructure easy to maintain as demand grew. They partnered with **Serverless Inc** and used the Serverless Framework to move toward a serverless architecture for both frontend and backend development.

**Serverless Inc** helped BuildCenter transition from Terraform to the Serverless Framework, automate its AWS-based infrastructure, and separate stateless and stateful resources for safer deployments. The solution included S3, CloudFront, ACM, Route53, Lambda, Aurora Serverless, Cognito, API Gateway, and SES, with multi-stage deployment support and protections like termination protection and DeletionPolicy. BuildCenter reported streamlined development cycles, faster recovery through automation, and the ability to rebuild environments in minutes with little to no manual intervention.
