Case Study
Seamless Certificate Management for Government Digital Literacy Initiative
Challenge
An industry leader in skill assessments and proctoring faced significant challenges in managing artifacts due to their extensive use of microservices across multiple deployment regions, each with varied versions and features.
Key Issues:
-
Obsolete and unreleased artifacts accumulating over time.
-
Unnecessary occupation of server space, resulting in cost overruns.
-
Throttling and maxing out of server space limits due to deluge of artifacts
Approach
Xponentium implemented a custom solution to address the client’s artifact management challenges, leveraging automation and best practices:
-
Custom Serverless System Integration:
-
Developed and deployed a custom Serverless system integrated with Amazon SNS and the client’s CI/CD pipeline.
-
Automated the mapping of all release versions across deployment regions.
-
-
Automated Cleanup Process:
-
Executed a cleanup activity that systematically identified and removed obsolete artifacts from the Nexus repository.
-
Ensured only active and necessary artifacts remained, optimizing server space usage.
-
-
Cost Optimization and Efficiency: Streamlined the artifact management process, reducing manual intervention and minimizing errors.
Xponentium Impact
-
Drastic Reduction in Storage Space: Reduced occupied storage space from nearly 90%-100% to just 10%-15% of the full capacity.
-
Cost Savings: Lowered server costs by freeing up valuable storage space and preventing unnecessary expansion.
-
Improved Efficiency and Scalability: Enhanced the client’s ability to manage microservices and deployment versions effectively by providing a scalable solution that can adapt to future growth without encountering the same storage issues.
