Customer Challenges
and Tailored Solutions
Every organisation we work with comes to us at a different stage – maybe they’re navigating tough regulatory demands, dealing with bloated cloud spend, wrestling with outdated infrastructure, or racing to scale a critical service. Sometimes it’s all of the above.
At Mobilise Cloud, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. We start where you are, listen to what you need, and build a secure, automated AWS foundation that grows at your pace – not someone else’s blueprint.
1. Challenge:
Strict Security & Regulatory Compliance
SEUPB (EU Projects Body) needed to migrate JEMS app under tight regulatory scrutiny and required secure landing zones, SSO, logging, monitoring, and Infrastructure-as-Code.
Mobilise’s Solution:
- Employed AWS Control Tower, Organisations, Service Control Policies, and AWS Config for compliant, governed multi-account setups.
- Automated deployments via Terraform and GitLab CI/CD.
- Delivered real-time SIEM with Elastic for log monitoring and alerting.
2. Challenge:
Cost & Scalability for Compute-Intensive Apps
JNCC’s AERIUS tool needed on-demand compute to process environmental data at scale cost-effectively.
Mobilise’s Solution:
- Designed scalable EKS/ECS platforms using Terraform IaC.
- Mixed EC2 On-Demand and Spot Instances (15%/85%) for resilient and efficient compute.
- Built automated CI/CD pipelines & utilised AWS Container Insights for performance monitoring. Resulted in 70% cost savings.
3. Challenge:
High Data Costs & Complex Legacy Stack
Safehouse used expensive Oracle DBs to store sensor data—costs were high and scaling was painful.
Mobilise’s Solution:
- Migrated backend to AWS Elastic Containers and introduced Elasticsearch as a cost-effective database.
- Provided secure, serverless data pipelines with analytics reporting.
- Achieved 99% cost reduction—approximately £3/month per sensor.
4. Challenge:
Digital Skills Gap & Upskilling Needs
Many organisations lack in-house cloud skills needed for modern operations.
Mobilise’s Solution:
- Delivered a three-pronged talent program: internal “Your Journey” upskilling, “Future Talent” recruitment, and a public “Academy” 12-week AWS training.
- Aligned with SFIA framework; open to public for AWS certification readiness
5. Challenge:
Rapidly Shifting Digital Demands (e.g COVID 19)
Admiral needed to shift to remote work and scale its insurance services workload almost overnight during the pandemic.
Mobilise’s Solution:
- Modernised infrastructure using cloud-native services like Amazon Connect for scalable contact centres on pay-as-you-go.
- Enabled remote collaboration, scaled digital front-end, and ensured business continuity.
6. Challenge:
Uncertainty in Cloud Migration Scope & Governance
Many organisations struggle to understand how much to migrate, governance models, and manage data/security risks.
Mobilise’s Solution:
- Laid out phased migration strategies (e.g. lift-and-shift, re-platform).
- Defined cloud governance frameworks including cost, security, and compliance guardrails.
- Provided staff training and continuous improvement cycles alongside IaC automation.
7. Challenge:
Scale Up of Cloud Infrastructure
Growing organisations often hit limits with cloud scalability, resilience, and performance.
Mobilise’s Solution:
- Deployed scalable, containerised microservices architectures using Kubernetes, EKS and ECS.
- Applied IaC (Terraform) and automated CI/CD for rapid, reliable scaling.
8. Challenge:
Accelerate Digital Transformation
Organisations need to modernise legacy systems, shift to cloud-native services, and improve speed-to-value.
Mobilise’s Solution:
- Conducted cloud readiness assessments and created tailored digital transformation roadmaps.
- Delivered agile teams and MVP releases to validate and iterate fast.
- Leveraged DevOps and SRE principles for continuous integration, testing, and delivery.
