It brings together small businesses and links them with communities and audience owners to give them a greater reach and makes them more successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ubertasconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Mercado-image-2.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-challenge\">The Challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mercado needed to ensure website availability to meet growing demand but the company\u2019s traditional infrastructure wasn\u2019t easy to scale. Mercado approached Devoteam to help migrate their existing platform to AWS, with the goals of reducing costs and providing elasticity. Mercado were looking for a partner that would allow them to focus on their core business, in the knowledge that they didn\u2019t have to worry about reliability or security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-solution\">The Solution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having assessed Mercado\u2019s needs Devoteam redesigned their stack to utilise serviced offerings such as RDS. Elastic load balancing was incorporated to provide fault tolerance, SSL termination and the scalability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By moving its e-commerce platform to AWS, Mercado has improved availability and now can scale on demand. AWS managed serviced options allow Mercado developers to launch new features without the need to administer hardware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ubertasconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Mercado-image-1.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-elasticity\">Elasticity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AWS Elastic Load Balancer with auto-scaling allows Mercado\u2019s application to handle the peaks and troughs of demand, whilst only paying for what they use, making it extremely cost-effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ubertasconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Train-image.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reliability\">Reliability<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mercado\u2019s application has been designed and built across two data centres with instant redundancy in the event of catastrophic failure. All without losing the ability to scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ubertasconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Collaboration-image.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-security\">Security<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of Mercado\u2019s client\u2019s sites are SSL certified for free using AWS Certificate Manager. SSL Certificates are available onto the elastic load balancer, which terminates SSL and removes the load from web servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ubertasconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Server-management-image.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDevoteam have invested time and effort to understand our business and IT drivers, and they have proved to be a valuable partner.
