Amazon Web Services

We provide tools and services to help you build, secure, and manage APIs and API-driven architectures at any scale. Able to manage large amounts of concurrent API calls, this fully managed service supports containerised and serverless workloads as well as web applications.

Offering efficient API development, cost savings and performance at any scale, API Gateway makes use of AWS’ global network of edge locations using CloudFront, enabling you to quickly iterate, test and release new API versions with ease and efficiency.

We provide services and tools that you build or migrate your solutions to a microservices architecture running on serverless computing. This lets you build services and applications without the need for provisioning or managing servers.

In addition to eliminating the need for provisioning of infrastructure, with Lambda, you only pay for the compute time you use resulting in optimal cost savings. Lamba is event-driven, compatible with any type of application or back-end service and offers optimised code execution time and performance. Additionally, Lamba executes code at the capacity your business requires, automated with custom event triggers.

Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) is an AWS managed service that allows users to deploy and scale relational databases in seconds. Its fully managed nature reduces operational overhead by handling tasks such as hardware provisioning, database setup, patching, and backups. RDS currently supports 6 popular database engines (Amazon Aurora, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, Oracle Database, and SQL Server) while the AWS Database Migration Service allows users to migrate their existing databases to either the same engine type or any one of the 6 currently supported by RDS – all without any down time.

RDS offers a plethora of configuration options. Of these, Aurora, an AWS optimised relational database engine, offers five times the throughput of standard MySQL on the same hardware, delivering the same security, availability, and reliability of commercial databases at a fraction of the cost.

Where possible, we leverage RDS to assist our clients in decreasing their overall Total Cost of Ownership and decrease their operational overhead, all while increasing their performance.

Through AWS Config, we enable you to assess, audit and evaluate the configurations of your AWS resources for simplified compliance auditing, security analysis, change management, and operational troubleshooting.

Leveraging AWS Config enables us to offer both continuous monitoring and assessment to ensure your AWS resource configurations remain compliant and within the confines of your business’ policies and standards.

By leveraging AWS Systems Manager (ASM), we help you streamline operational processes across your AWS applications and resources using a central dashboard. Utilising ASM means that we’re able to automate operational tasks for Amazon EC2 or RDS instances, implement pre-approved change workflows or audit operational changes.

As a secure, end-to-end management solution for hybrid cloud environments, with ASM, we can improve visibility and control in the cloud, on prem and at the edge, whilst shortening the time to detect and resolve operational issues as they arise.

We implement AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF) to protect your web applications from common web exploits that could affect application availability, compromise security or consume excessive resources.

AWS WAF gives you control over how traffic reaches your applications by enabling you to create and customise security rules to address security risks and automated bots that consume excess resources, skew metrics, or can cause downtime. With AWS WAF, you pay only for what you use and the pricing is based on how many rules you deploy and how many web requests your application receives.

AWS supports everything you need to build and run Windows applications, offering flexible licensing options, reliability and performance, security, and low TCO that enables you to accelerate growth, drive efficiencies and realise long-term cost reductions.

With AWS capabilities and BBD’s proven expertise, we offer support and all you may need build and run Windows applications, ensuring you can easily lift-and-shift, refactor or modernise your Windows workloads.

Through AWS QuickSight, we enable powerful BI capabilities within your organisation. Utilising QuickSight allows user to better understand company data through querying in natural language and receive answers through a centralised dashboard which is easy to use and understand.

QuickSight allows you to quickly connect and scale all data whether it is cloud-based, 3rd party or on-premise data. This allows customers to easily and automatically identify anomalies and patterns that occur within their data sets.

With the Digital Customer Experience (DCX) service, we help with the infrastructure, storage, availability, advanced analytics and decision-making capabilities you need to deliver a meaningful digital platform experience to your customers.

By harnessing the power of customer data, we support all phases of the digital customer acquisition and retention lifecycle, providing personalised, meaningful experiences that capture the attention of your customers and helps converts them into buyers. This includes content management and marketing automation to engage prospects and customers with the right experience, effective and secure commerce solutions to create seamless buying experiences, and data analytics to support your decisions and retain customers.

We have expertise in delivering DevOps solutions on the AWS cloud. Using strong CI/CD pipelines while optimising each stage of the development lifecycle, we can accelerate your time to market.

Our range of services and technology solutions aim to simplify the provision and management of infrastructure and code deployment, automating software release processes and monitoring performance.

For businesses looking to migrate or modernise on the AWS cloud, we have the required expertise and tools to ensure an accelerated migration of workloads, application and legacy infrastructure aligned to your business strategy.

We specialise in building and delivering security-focussed solutions that meet the continuously evolving needs of your specific workloads and use cases in the cloud, making use of automation, agility and scaling.
