Our production capability
Rest assured your project is in good hands with us. We push our tech teams onto emerging and disruptive platforms to give you better returns on your investment.
AWS Amplify allows us to build on a serverless architecture. We are uniquely able to boast a high level of experience with this emerging platform and can build scalable & performant apps and websites on it.
Dedicated servers are expensive. Serverless architecture adapts to your traffic needs.
Say you have higher than usual traffic on your website since it’s Black Friday, Hooray! If you are on a traditional Server, you may experience server overload and lose those valuable visitors. With serverless architecture such as AWS Amplify, it will automatically grow depending on traffic on your website.
If you want to ensure that your audience in China gets the same speed as those in Germany, you do not need to worry about load balancing or any complicated clusters. Amplify also provides last-mile deployment under the hood, this translates to low-cost high-performance websites for all your audience.
This also means you pay for exactly what you use. Therefore, if there’s low traffic on your site, you’ll just pay for that low traffic. Whereas on a server you’re paying a standard price, regardless of usage.
The data privacy and security of your users are guided by law. We use AWS Cognito for secure encrypted membership storage, which ensures we adhere to all the legal processes. Cognito gives us peace of mind, our developers have no need to get to production data at all. Cognito decouples our local development from needing production user information. It is a revolutionary system that helps protect your data and your business.
Ever wondered what Amazon, the biggest online marketplace, uses as their Database, for their millions of products?
Dynamo DB! The people at AWS were nice enough to offer this service for you to use on your project.
This assures you that your project has the infrastructure in place to scale without limits.
