LifeAssist, a provider of employee well-being solutions across 18 African countries, partnered with us to modernise their complex IT infrastructure. Using Google Cloud Platform (GCP), we migrated their applications and databases to CloudSQL and deployed Dockerised applications to Cloud Run. This two-week migration transformed their operations, allowing LifeAssist's IT team to focus on customer value, with rapid responses to feature requests and bug fixes. GCP's security model enhanced data protection, while the scalable infrastructure supported LifeAssist's growth and innovation, empowering them to continue delivering essential well-being services across Africa.
Migrating to Google Cloud for Enhanced Efficiency and Security
We undertook the task of modernising LifeAssist's IT infrastructure by migrating their applications and databases to Google Cloud Platform. Within an impressive two-week period, we successfully restructured their data warehouse and migrated it to CloudSQL, a fully managed database service that ensures compliance with strict regulatory data requirements. Additionally, we dockerised LifeAssist’s applications and deployed them to Cloud Run, a serverless platform that simplifies the deployment and management of containerised applications.
Transformative Impact on Operations and Agility
The migration to Google Cloud has been nothing short of transformative for LifeAssist. By offloading the management of infrastructure to a fully managed cloud environment, their IT team can now devote more time to delivering customer value. The agility provided by the new platform means that urgent features, fixes, and bugs can be addressed rapidly—often within a single day. This responsiveness has significantly improved their ability to meet customer needs and maintain high levels of service.
Enhanced Security and Scalability with Google Cloud
Google Cloud Platform’s end-to-end security model has fortified LifeAssist's operations, ensuring the security and privacy of their applications and customer data. With a more secure and reliable IT environment, LifeAssist has gained the confidence to scale and innovate, supporting their continued growth and success in delivering essential well-being services across Africa.
Empowering Growth and Innovation
The successful migration to Google Cloud has provided LifeAssist with a robust, agile, and secure IT infrastructure that aligns with their growth ambitions. The operational efficiencies gained from this migration have not only improved day-to-day operations but have also positioned LifeAssist to better serve their clients and continue their mission of enhancing employee well-being across the continent.
