Business Opportunity

IBM Softlayer Migration to GC

VWO’s Wingify is a fast-growing software company based in New Delhi, India, that creates globally acclaimed technology products. The VWO Testing, an A/B, Split, and Multivariate Testing solution are some of their flagship products. VWO Experience Optimization Platform is popular among thousands of businesses and consumers in more than 90 countries and has served brands such as Microsoft, Lenovo, Walt Disney, Target, eBay, and Ubisoft.

VWO, hosted on IBM SoftLayer, sought scalable solutions to enhance visitor conversion rates and optimize costs. To overcome the limitations of their bare-metal system, they transitioned to the cloud for improved processing speeds and scalability.

Niveus Solutions, part of NTT DATA, facilitated this transformation by migrating VWO to GCP and implementing containerization with GKE, ensuring a seamless cloud-native transition.

The Challenge

  • Scalability Limitations: The existing bare-metal infrastructure on IBM SoftLayer struggled to support rapid scaling, hindering the ability to manage growing workloads effectively.
  • High Costs: Operational expenses were high, with limited optimization options for resource usage and infrastructure costs.
  • Performance Bottlenecks: Slower processing speeds impacted data analysis, delaying actionable insights critical for marketing and operational decisions.
  • Monitoring and Troubleshooting Gaps: The absence of robust monitoring systems led to slower identification and resolution of technical issues, affecting service quality.
  • No Robust Disaster Recovery: The system lacked a reliable disaster recovery strategy, increasing the risk of downtime or data loss during unexpected events.

Our Solution

The Niveus team collaborated closely with VWO to evaluate their workloads on IBM SoftLayer and align the migration strategy with their needs. They provided guidance on cloud best practices and designed a solution to enhance scalability and efficiency. Large-scale, production-ready databases were migrated to virtual machines and Kubernetes clusters to enable flexibility and resilience. A CI/CD pipeline was implemented to accelerate release cycles and ensure reliable deployments.

To strengthen data insights, a BigQuery-powered data warehouse was deployed, supported by integration pipelines and an open-source monitoring setup. This included logs and metric-based dashboards for real-time issue resolution. Additionally, a robust disaster recovery strategy was put in place to guarantee zero downtime and uninterrupted service across applications.

I want to thank the Niveus team for working with us during the migration process from bare-metal servers to GCP. The team was always available and helped us to resolve any questions we had about the services. Some of the demos created by the team were instrumental for us to go live faster as our team got a head start because of them. Really happy with the ongoing support and wish the team all the success.
