Purpose of the project

Each end client required a dedicated platform with independently scalable video storage and isolated infrastructure. An on-premises approach introduced significant operational overhead and long onboarding cycles. The primary challenge was to design a scalable and resilient solution capable of handling petabytes of data while enabling ARC Software to provision new client platforms within hours instead of weeks.

We achieved these goals using AWS Cloud. Infrastructure as Code enabled the creation of new end-client environments in under six hours. Amazon S3 provides a highly durable and scalable storage layer for petabytes of video data, supported by cost-efficient Amazon S3 Storage Classes, including Amazon S3 Glacier for long-term analytics.

The initial implementation delivered 99.9% availability. Through continuous improvements to the disaster recovery architecture and processes over the past year, we increased overall availability to 99.95%, while achieving 99.99% uptime for single-Availability Zone failure scenarios. To further strengthen resilience and data protection, we implemented AWS Backup with cross-region policies for sensitive data and integrated Elastio Ransomware and Malware Scanning for Amazon S3 to ensure data integrity and protection against threats.

The results

  • Delivered a highly available and resilient cloud environment with minimal downtime, ensuring continuous access to critical storage workloads.
  • Enabled scalable, petabyte-scale storage using Amazon S3 with no additional operational overhead.
  • Achieved 30% cost optimization for large-scale data storage by archiving infrequently accessed data with Amazon S3 Glacier.
  • Improved overall availability from 99.9% to 99.95% through enhanced disaster recovery processes, strengthening resilience against regional failure scenarios
  • By modernizing our data platform architecture, we preserved full business functionality while reducing our recovery time objective (RTO) from 8 hours to 2 hours.
  • Achieved 99.99% uptime for single–Availability Zone failure scenarios, ensuring high reliability for critical workloads.
  • Implemented AWS Backup as a fully managed, policy-based solution to protect sensitive data across regions, ensuring data integrity and rapid recovery under all circumstances.
  • Reduced customer onboarding time by enabling rapid, PaaS-based provisioning of isolated client environments within 6 hours.
