Customer Challenge

Luxia encountered several challenges within their initial single-account AWS setup

Difficulty managing environment –

Difficulty managing environment changes over time due to the growing complexity of workloads and the need for a structured multi-account strategy

Lack of monitoring –

Lack of a proactive monitoring mechanism to detect and remediate security issues early while adhering to AWS best practices.

Limited visibility –

Limited visibility into resource configurations, making it harder to enforce compliance and optimize operations

Difficulty in managing –

Increasing difficulty in managing containerized applications on Amazon ECS without clear separation of development, staging, and production environments, which led to deployment inconsistencies and operational overhead.

If not addressed, these challenges would have limited Luxia’s ability to scale securely, maintain compliance, streamline ECS-based microservices, and manage their AWS environment with efficiency.

Why Amazon
Web Services

AWS provides a depth and breadth of infrastructure capabilities and tech technological offerings that are unparalleled. GoCloud chose AWS as their cloud provider because of high-performance, resiliency, scalability, and agility benefits the platform has to offer. Moreover, leveraging the latest AWS tools and technologies would streamline their workflows and result in a decreased time to market for their software products.

Why Luxia
Chose GoCloud

As an AWS Advanced Consulting Partner, GoCloud was well-equipped to take on Luxia challenges and implement a solution by designing a well-architected infrastructure on AWS. GoCloud was selected as they had the expertise to build a secure, high-performing, resilient, and efficient Landing Zone. The process for provisioning new AWS accounts and effectively managing them could be simplified. GoCloud could also deliver a managed and automated environment for logging into AWS accounts using Single Sign-On credentials.

GoCloud’s Solution

To address these challenges, GoCloud helped Resolve Parking Solutions transition from their fragmented multi-account setup to a secure and scalable architecture on Amazon ECS, enabling consistent deployments across Dev/Stag and Prod. In parallel, an AWS Landing Zone with Control Tower was implemented to provide best-practice account governance, centralized security, and simplified management.

Architecture Diagram

Workflow

For Luxia, a multi-account setup was created using AWS Control Tower, with separate Dev, Stage, and Prod environments to ensure proper isolation, governance, and security. Each environment runs within a dedicated Amazon VPC spanning multiple Availability Zones (AZs) to provide fault tolerance and high availability.

For Luxia, a multi-account setup was created by using AWS Control Tower, details of which are as follows:

2 Organizational Units (OUs) – Members OU (Develop, Staging, Production) and Security OU (Audit, Log Archive).

3 Shared Accounts – Management, Audit (for centralized monitoring), and Log Archive (for compliance and log aggregation).

A cloud-native directory with preconfigured groups and AWS IAM Identity Center (SSO) access.

20 preventive guardrails to enforce security and governance policies and 2 detective guardrails to detect configuration violations.

With AWS Control Tower, a Landing Zone was established, providing Luxia with a well-architected multi-account baseline built on AWS best practices. The Landing Zone organizes accounts into OUs and enforces governance centrally.

Core OU: Contains Audit and Log Archive accounts. The Audit account consolidates security findings, while Log Archive aggregates CloudTrail and Config logs from all accounts.

Members OU: Hosts Development, Staging, and Production accounts, each with workload isolation and environment-specific policies.

Root OU: Parent for all accounts, ensuring policies applied at the root cascade to every OU and account

Guardrails and Policies:

Preventive guardrails (SCPs) restrict unsafe configurations (e.g., blocking public S3 buckets, enforcing strong IAM policies).

Detective guardrails use AWS Config rules to continuously monitor compliance.

All workloads and environments are accessed only via AWS SSO, eliminating multiple IAM credentials and ensuring federated identity.

Workloads & Applications:

Dev & Stage: Resolve Parking Solutions runs containerized applications on Amazon ECS Fargate, integrated with Code Pipeline for CI/CD. Pipelines are connected to Bitbucket, so code changes trigger automated builds, tests, and deployments. Dev supports feature development, while Stage mirrors production for pre-release validation.

Production: Production workloads run on ECS Fargate clusters across multiple Availability Zones for high availability. Application data resides in Amazon Aurora (PostgreSQL/MSSQL), while static media is stored in Amazon S3 and distributed globally through CloudFront for low-latency access.

Frontend Applications: Web frontends are also deployed on ECS, allowing the platform to auto-scale with traffic spikes and deliver reliable performance during peak demand.

S3 Buckets: Dedicated S3 buckets handle CloudFormation artifacts, backups, deployment builds, and logs. All buckets are encrypted, access-controlled, and private to ensure customer data security

AWS ECS Integration:

Enable ECS Across All Accounts and Environments
Luxia deployed Amazon ECS in their development, staging, and production accounts, ensuring consistent orchestration of containerized applications across all environments. This provided clear isolation, simplified governance, and reduced cross-environment risks.

Standardize Microservices Deployments
All microservices were containerized and deployed through ECS using Code Pipeline and Code Build. This automated process applied the same build, test, and deployment workflows in every environment, eliminating manual errors and ensuring reliable releases.

Centralize Logging and Monitoring
ECS services in dev, stage, and prod forward logs and metrics to CloudWatch and a centralized logging account. This gave Luxia a single pane of glass for container performance, scaling events, and operational health, making troubleshooting and audits far easier.

Secure Data and Networking for ECS
ECS clusters were deployed in private subnets with access controlled via ALBs, IAM roles, and Secrets Manager. This architecture ensured encrypted communication, controlled access to sensitive resources, and secure handling of application secrets.

Scale Seamlessly with Fargate in Production
In production, Luxia used ECS on AWS Fargate to scale micro services automatically based on demand. This reduced infrastructure management overhead while maintaining high availability and performance.

Monitoring & Security:

CloudTrail and AWS Config enabled in all regions with logs centralized in the Log Archive account.

Amazon CloudWatch provides application and infrastructure monitoring with alarms and dashboards.

AWS Guard Duty and Security Hub aggregate security findings across accounts into the Audit account for centralized threat detection.

Role-based access controls ensure developers work in Dev, QA/operations in Stage, and only authorized personnel access Prod.

Results & Benefits

The solutions implemented by GoCloud resolved Luxia’s IT challenges and delivered a range of benefits, with Amazon ECS at the core of their modernization journey:

Reliable Multi-Environment Deployments with ECS

By implementing Amazon ECS across dedicated development, staging, and production environments, Luxia achieved consistent, automated deployments of their microservices. This eliminated the deployment inconsistencies of their legacy setup, reduced operational overhead, and allowed their teams to test and release features faster with confidence.

Scalable and Resilient Microservices

ECS enabled Luxia to run containerized workloads that scale seamlessly based on demand. With Fargate powering production, Luxia no longer needs to manage underlying servers, ensuring high availability and reduced infrastructure management burden.

Early Detection of Security and Deployment Issues

ECS integrated with CI/CD pipelines (Code Pipeline + Code Build) allowed Luxia to automatically build, test, and deploy while enforcing security scans and configuration checks at each stage. This ensured misconfigurations or vulnerabilities were identified early, reducing risk before code reached production.

Clear Visibility into Application State

With ECS service-level monitoring through CloudWatch, Container Insights, and centralized logging, Luxia gained full visibility into how containers were running, scaling, and interacting with other services. This made troubleshooting faster, improved audit readiness, and provided stronger operational insights into their microservices.
