Managed Services

Goliaz is an online fitness platform. Passionate athletes from all over the world use their app to work out and get fitter. They claim to be a great community of athletes that support and push each other.

Challenge

Goliaz aimed to disrupt the fitness industry by providing online gym classes, accessible globally through a digital platform. Initially, the company successfully developed the necessary platform, leveraging its in-house developers. However, as the platform's user base expanded, the demand for robust IT infrastructure grew exponentially.

Why AWS and Magic Beans?

Goliaz recognized the need for a scalable, secure, and cost-effective IT solution to support their growing online platform. They chose Amazon Web Services (AWS) for its comprehensive cloud offerings and global reach. To navigate the complexities of cloud migration and optimization, Goliaz partnered with Magic Beans, a seasoned AWS Partner known for its expertise in cloud services, cost optimization, and technical support. The collaboration aimed to leverage Magic Beans' managed services to ensure a smooth transition to the cloud, ongoing system monitoring, and continuous improvement in cost-efficiency and performance.

Solution

Magic Beans initiated the project by conducting a thorough review of Goliaz's existing AWS infrastructure. The initial steps included:

 

Rightsizing over-provisioned Amazon EC2 instances to better match the workload demands, leading to immediate cost savings.

Deleting unused Amazon EBS volumes, AMIs, and correcting misconfigured auto-scaling groups to eliminate unnecessary charges.

Optimizing Amazon RDS instances by removing underutilized instances and adjusting the resources of over-provisioned ones for efficiency.

Fine-tuning AWS Elastic Beanstalk configurations to ensure optimal performance and cost.

Additionally, Magic Beans implemented monitoring to integrate a comprehensive monitoring solution. This tool allowed for proactive monitoring of Goliaz’s infrastructure, enabling the detection and mitigation of issues before they impacted the business. Through continuous monitoring and data analysis, Magic Beans provided Goliaz with actionable insights to further optimize their cloud environment.
