Migrating from Heroku to AWS
Discover how we ensured a resilient, scalable, and cost-efficient infrastructure for the client's app by migrating it from Heroku to AWS.
Our Customer
IoT-driven Proptech Company
Scale Development (SD) creates custom, interactive digital amenities for new and existing buildings by integrating IoT. Scale Development is an innovative company which uses cloud-based solutions. Scale Development hosted ava-touch application on Heroku paying a high cost for its services. The company needed elastic and scalable infrastructure, which couldn’t be satisfied with Heroku offers. Romexsoft helped to solve these issues by migrating web app to AWS.
The Challenge
High Hosting Costs and Limited Scalability
Scale Development utilizes multiple technologies to advance its offering. To host the ava-touch app in the Heroku cloud, the company had to pay high prices for the services without getting enough benefits of it. At the same time, it would be less expensive and easier to manage the assets in AWS. AWS offers services that allow Scale Development to get desired elasticity, scalability and easy management of its cloud infrastructure.
The Solution
Migrate from Heroku to AWS
Being a AWS migration services vendor, Romexsoft did professional expertise of ava-touch software and environment and quickly conducted a plan of migration to AWS with its infrastructure design.

DevOps Automation reflecting CI/CD processes was implemented by CodePipeline:
- CodeCommit
- CodeBuild
- CodeDeploy
The Results
Cost-Effective Cloud Migration
As a result, the environment of the ava-touch app was deployed in AWS without downtime. Scale Development paid half as much, and a scalable system’s architecture made the application ready for high load. Romexsoft implemented Elastic Beanstalk Service (EBS) which gives SD the opportunity to easily manage its web app environment. Romexsoft and SD continue working together. Romexsoft improves migrated web app source code. Moreover, the partner is going to develop other web apps implementing Serverless and Lambda AWS services there.
