Client & Business Challenges
A Boston-based provider of at-home disease testing needed to upgrade outdated technology to maintain regulatory compliance, safeguard confidential patient data, and sustain telehealth offerings. Frequent server outages and slow response times underscored the pressing need to modernize legacy applications and infrastructure. Their existing framework lacked the scalability to serve growing user demands across new regions, and the codebase’s complexity made consistent updates challenging. Determined to offer reliable home testing solutions, the client pursued a cloud-based approach that would handle peak traffic, ensure quick onboarding of new customers, and expand telehealth capabilities—while preserving data security and fostering patient-centric experiences.
The Solution
Successive Digital engineered a holistic migration plan, refactoring and modernizing core healthcare applications onto AWS while preserving compliance with industry regulations. By reviewing code, implementing global state management, and re-architecting legacy components, we enabled a robust, cost-efficient tier structure. CI/CD pipelines automated testing and deployments, reducing human errors and expediting updates. The new infrastructure incorporated advanced monitoring for quick diagnostics, guaranteeing consistent uptime and responsiveness. Security enhancements, including embedded compliance measures, safeguarded patient data while reinforcing trust among providers and patients. This approach facilitated rapid client onboarding, scaling telehealth services internationally and unifying data across platforms to foster seamless clinician-patient interactions.
- Infrastructure Modernization
Leveraging AWS’s tiered structure, we reorganized storage and compute resources to better accommodate peak usage. This transformation eliminated frequent server outages, cut operational costs, and simplified expansions. High-availability configurations ensured minimal downtime and assured patients of reliable, always-on telehealth service options.
- Codebase Optimization
Through thorough refactoring, implementing global state management, and standardizing coding practices, we simplified the core app logic. This initiative enhanced maintainability and streamlined feature releases, ensuring faster response times. The improved code structure also made implementing new security and compliance requirements straightforward across all modules.
- Automated Testing & Deployment
Setting up CI/CD pipelines handled ongoing builds, tests, and rollouts automatically. This removed human error from deployments and provided real-time feedback on application performance. With integrated monitoring and logging, developers addressed issues promptly, ensuring that new versions hit production quickly without compromising stability or compliance standards.
