CHALLENGE

Achieve faster infrastructure deployment with improved cost optimization, performance efficiency, and scalability.

Nylas wanted faster infrastructure deployment with improved cost optimization, performance efficiency, and scalability by migrating its Heroku workload to a microservices-based Docker environment on AWS.

“nClouds’ work to integrate CI/CD within our deployment pipeline is enabling our fast-growth company to accelerate the delivery of new features. Their expertise in containerization and migrating Heroku to AWS has enhanced our ability to scale to support increased demand as Nylas expands its global reach.”

THE SOLUTION

nClouds' Solution Architecture for Nylas

Nylas needed faster infrastructure deployment with improved cost optimization, performance efficiency, and scalability. To achieve these objectives, Nylas engaged with nClouds to migrate its Heroku workload to a microservices-based Docker environment on AWS.

nClouds applied its code library of best-practices configurations to provide faster infrastructure deployment and generate cost savings.

On AWS, scalable on-demand resources deliver efficiency without sacrificing performance. Separating a monolithic application into multiple containers and microservices enables faster application deployment because developers can work on different components of the application in parallel. Applications and tasks stored in containers can be rapidly scaled up and down.
