Account Automation


Requirement | Sandboxes and test environments

The client required the ability to explore AWS services on demand while controlling budget and avoiding impact and security risks to existing infrastructure and workloads.


Solution | Account automation

We implemented pipelines to create AWS accounts with predefined best-practice policies, isolated from the corporate network, enabling teams to provision, destroy, and test AWS services on demand. We provided Infrastructure as Code templates for deploying resources such as Amazon RDS instances, EC2 instances, and AWS Lambda functions on demand, eliminating manual provisioning steps. We configured budget caps and alarms to maintain constant cost control and prevent overspending or incorrect provisioning by various teams.


Outcome | Reduced time to market

Teams can provision and test resources rapidly during the proof-of-concept phase for new applications or AWS services, facilitating informed decisions on project viability, all while ensuring budget limits are enforced.
