Project Overview

In a groundbreaking project, WebHostingM's cloud solution architects successfully designed and executed a large-scale migration for TechSphere Japan, a leading technology services provider based in Tokyo. The project involved transitioning over 7,000 websites from legacy on-premises CentOS 7 servers to a state-of-the-art, hardened CloudLinux environment on Amazon Web Services (AWS).

The Problem

TechSphere Japan faced significant challenges with its aging infrastructure:

  • Escalating maintenance costs
  • Increasing security vulnerabilities
  • Performance bottlenecks affecting client satisfaction
  • Limited scalability hindering business growth

Our legacy systems were holding us back. We needed a solution that would not only solve our current issues but also position us for future growth.

Hiroshi Tanaka,
CTO of TechSphere Japan

Enter WebHostingM's cloud solution architects, a team of digital samurai ready to take on this monumental challenge. From our office in Gifu, with determination and AWS credentials in the pocket, we were able to get this project completed within 7 weeks.

The Solution

The migration was meticulously planned and executed in phases. First, a thorough assessment and planning phase involved an analysis of the existing infrastructure and application dependencies. Next, the architecture design phase focused on developing a scalable and secure AWS architecture. This was followed by migration preparation, which included the creation of automated migration scripts and thorough testing.

The staged migration phase involved a phased transition of websites, starting with non-critical assets. After the migration, performance optimization was carried out to fine-tune the new environment for optimal performance. Finally, security hardening measures were implemented, including advanced security measures and access controls.

The Results

The migration was not only completed ahead of schedule but also led to remarkable enhancements across the board. The transition significantly boosted website performance, ensuring a smoother user experience and increased engagement. Additionally, security measures were substantially strengthened, resulting in a notable decline in incidents, providing peace of mind for both the organization and its users.

Moreover, the overall costs associated with infrastructure management saw a significant decrease, allowing for greater resource allocation to other critical areas. This successful migration ultimately established a robust, reliable environment with exceptional uptime, positioning the organization for future growth and success.

  • 40% improvement in overall website performance

  • 60% reduction in security incidents

  • 35% decrease in infrastructure management costs

  • 99.99% uptime achieved post-migration

Looking Ahead

Building on the success of this project, TechSphere Japan is now exploring further opportunities to leverage cloud technologies for business growth.

"This migration has opened new doors for us," Tanaka reflected. "We're now positioned to offer more advanced services to our clients and compete more effectively in the global market."

For WebHostingM, this project stands as a testament to our expertise in complex cloud migrations and their ability to deliver tangible business value.

"Every migration presents unique challenges," said Nakamura. "But we're not just moving websites; it's about crafting a digital zen garden – beautiful, efficient, and impossibly secure. With the right planning, technology, and execution, we help businesses achieve remarkable transformations."

As more companies in Japan and beyond look to modernize their IT infrastructure, WebHostingM stands ready to lead the way, turning cloud aspirations into reality.
