Case Study: Victoria and Albert Museum achieves a scalable, engaging digital platform with Unboxed

Victoria and Albert Museum launches new digital platform in 2 weeks with Unboxed

Unboxed partnered with the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A), a world-leading museum of art and design, which required a robust partner to ensure its newly developed digital platform remained live during a critical relaunch. The V&A needed efficient, scalable cloud-based infrastructure and ongoing application support to support its 5,000-page CMS and future digital growth strategy.

Unboxed deployed the Ruby on Rails application to AWS, implementing AWS CloudFormation and CodeDeploy to manage resources and coordinate deployments. The solution included CloudFront to reduce server load and an autoscaling infrastructure to handle unpredictable traffic. As a result, the platform was successfully relaunched in just two weeks with zero downtime deploys and reduced running costs, positioning the V&A for continued digital growth.
