Challenges

Mimun Yashir, a well-established player in the cloud ecosystem, faced the challenge of refining their cloud strategy to better support their business growth. Although they were already operating in a multi-cloud environment, the company recognized the need to select a primary cloud provider to streamline their operations and ensure a more robust and scalable infrastructure. They envisioned a solution that would offer flexibility, security, and reliability while enabling fast, intelligent development deployments to meet their evolving business needs. To achieve this, they chose AWS as their primary cloud provider.

Additionally, many organizations transitioning to the cloud faces a disconnect between business and technology departments, which can lead to friction and inefficiencies. For Mimun Yashir, it was crucial to ensure seamless collaboration between these teams. The company also needed to meet stringent security and regulatory compliance requirements, making it essential to build a secure cloud infrastructure that could address these needs while remaining adaptable to the business's demands.
