About the Customer

Leveraging advanced technology, Kwik Delivery ensures that customers enjoy enhanced visibility and flexibility for urban, last-mile shipments. By streamlining logistics processes, Kwik Delivery’s platform effectively reduces unnecessary steps, making B2B deliveries more affordable and transparent, free from hidden costs.

The Challenge

Kwik Delivery faced significant challenges with their on-premises solution and sought to transition to AWS. Recognizing the myriad benefits of cloud services, Kwik Delivery anticipated a more optimized and cost-effective solution that would enable quicker responses to new opportunities and issues. The move promised enhanced flexibility and scalability to adapt to evolving needs and improved security measures, ensuring accessibility from anywhere, owing to the sustainable and reliable nature of cloud services.

For a seamless transition and optimal performance in their new cloud environment, Jungle Works partnered with Silicon Overdrive to conduct an AWS Well-Architected Framework Review (WAFR).

Kwik Delivery aimed to fortify their security posture by adhering to AWS security best practices, thereby boosting their compliance scores. Additionally, they sought to optimize cost efficiency, enhance service capabilities, and increase operational speeds through this strategic migration.

The Solution

To address Kwik Delivery’s security and performance challenges, several key remediations were implemented.

Silicon Overdrive deployed Amazon CloudWatch dashboards to enable continuous system health monitoring. For operational auditing, AWS CloudTrail was enabled, while AWS Config was utilized for in-depth infrastructure and configuration auditing.

In addition, we incorporated high availability and fault tolerance measures, ensuring robust performance and reliability. Amazon CloudFront was integrated to enhance content delivery speed, significantly improving user experience. A comprehensive Disaster Recovery Backup and Restore Policy was developed and implemented to meet Kwik Delivery’s specific needs.

A thorough Cost Optimization Assessment was performed to identify and eliminate inefficiencies.

To ensure ongoing compliance and security, Trend Micro Cloud One™ – Conformity was executed.

These combined efforts have substantially bolstered Kwik Delivery’s security posture, operational efficiency, and cost-effectiveness in their new AWS cloud environment.

The Outcome

Following the implementation of the recommended security and performance enhancements, Kwik Delivery’s newly optimized AWS environment exhibited significant improvements across multiple areas.

Operational capabilities were markedly enhanced, enabling more efficient and reliable service delivery. Cost effectiveness was also substantially improved, resulting in better resource utilization and reduced expenses.

Moreover, cybersecurity standards were elevated, ensuring stronger protection and compliance. These outcomes collectively contributed to a more robust, scalable, and efficient cloud infrastructure for Kwik Delivery.
