Case Study: Media Company achieves 30% cost savings and 4,000% user growth with Wizeline’s AWS cloud migration

Cloud Migration to AWS for Science-Focused Media Company

Wizeline helped a U.S. media company focused on educational content migrate its platform to Amazon Web Services (AWS). The company needed to integrate with a scientific organization’s deep-sea exploration data platform, while keeping the forum, frontend, backend, and supporting systems stable and aligned with its brand guidelines.

Wizeline mapped the existing system, built a migration roadmap, and moved the platform’s assets, database, and application layers to AWS while updating notifications, authorization, caching, and mapping features. The team completed the work in three months, removed donation-processing code no longer needed, and delivered a smoother, faster platform that drove a 4,000% increase in average new users per month and reduced hosting costs by about 30%.
