How a fintech startup launched faster with outsourced AWS migration and operations

A Pune-based fintech startup built an AI-powered investment marketplace connecting SEBI-registered brokerage houses and market experts with retail investors across US and Indian markets. As the platform prepared to scale, the company needed a more flexible AWS foundation for performance, scalability, and cost efficiency — without building an internal infrastructure team. Flentas migrated and modernized the application on AWS, then took on ongoing managed services to keep infrastructure operations off the startup's plate.

The Challenge

A growing fintech platform needing scale without the infrastructure overhead

As the platform prepared for launch and growth, the company needed cloud infrastructure that could scale with the business without diverting product and compliance teams into day-to-day infrastructure management.

Modernization for scale

The application needed to move to AWS to improve scalability, performance, and cost efficiency.

Compliance and operational focus

The company wanted to outsource infrastructure operations so its team could focus on product development and compliance rather than building and managing an internal cloud function.

The Approach

A full AWS setup, followed by ongoing outsourced managed services

Flentas designed and migrated the application to AWS, then took on full managed services for ongoing infrastructure operations.

  1. 01

    Set up the application on AWS using EC2 for web services, Load Balancers for scale across multiple instances, Elastic IPs for on-demand Dev/QA environments, and Amazon VPC for network segregation.

  2. 02

    Decoupled the application to leverage scalable, fully managed AWS services such as S3 and Redis.

  3. 03

    Automated the starting and stopping of Dev environments during office hours to control costs, alongside automated backup and recovery strategies.

  4. 04

    Provided proactive 24/7 monitoring and alerting across infrastructure and applications, with APM integration to identify opportunities for application-level performance improvements.

Business Outcome

Faster launch, lower cost, less operational burden

Reduced infrastructure staffing needs

By outsourcing cloud operations instead of hiring a full-time cloud resource at this stage of the business.

Faster go-live

Enabled by a managed infrastructure model and faster operational response.

Ongoing cost optimization

Through fortnightly cost-saving reviews and proactive action on identified opportunities.

24/7 infrastructure monitoring

Covering patch management, security, and performance requirements.

Continued operational support

Including vendor issue resolution and infrastructure support as the platform evolves.
