About the project with Flexwise Health
IT Craft collaborated with Flexwise to move on from bare-metal traditional infrastructure to today’s cloud-native one. The team refactored the system to microservices, moved to Amazon EKS, and adopted GitOps to simplify automated infrastructure and deployment management.
The new infrastructure offers a failure-resistant and scalable platform and streamlined CI/DC pipelines. The infrastructure offers HIPAA-compliant data processing so that highly private healthcare data can be processed securely.
The client needed to construct an agile, strong, and secure infrastructure, one that was capable of coping with ongoing developments and fast turnaround on changes on market requirements.
The ultimate goal was to improve infrastructure, cut recurring expenses, expedite timelines on delivery, and achieve smooth convergence to healthcare regulations.
