Customer Challenge

Luxia was facing the following operational and governance challenges within their AWS environment:

Lack of centralized governance -

Lack of centralized governance and standardized account management across production and non-production environments.

Limited operational visibility –

Limited operational visibility, monitoring, and incident response processes, increasing risk during high-traffic events and rapid feature releases.

Manual infrastructure management –

Manual infrastructure management, patching, backup oversight, and change control processes that were resource-intensive and operationally risky.

Challenges Impact –

If left unaddressed, these challenges would have impacted Luxia’s ability to scale securely, maintain compliance across environments, optimize cloud costs, and operate under a structured managed services framework aligned with AWS best practices.

Why Amazon

GoCloud leverages AWS because of its enterprise-grade security, high availability, global infrastructure footprint, scalability, and operational resilience. The platform’s broad ecosystem of native services supports automation, governance, monitoring, and cost optimization key pillars of a mature Managed Services practice. By utilizing advanced AWS tools and operational best practices, GoCloud ensures improved agility, standardized deployments, reduced operational risk, and faster time to market for customer workloads.

Why Luxia
Chose GoCloud

As an AWS Advanced Consulting Partner, GoCloud demonstrated strong expertise in delivering structured Managed Services aligned with AWS best practices and Well-Architected principles. Luxia selected GoCloud for its proven capability to design and operate secure, scalable, and compliant multi-account environments using AWS Control Tower. GoCloud simplified AWS account provisioning and governance while enabling centralized identity and access management through Single Sign-On integration. Beyond initial setup, GoCloud delivered continuous operational oversight, automation, monitoring, and infrastructure management through AWS CloudFormation, ensuring a resilient and fully managed cloud operating model.

GoCloud’s Solution

To address Luxia’s operational and governance challenges, GoCloud transitioned their environment from a legacy single-account structure to a secure, scalable, and compliant multi-account architecture aligned with MSP best practices. The infrastructure was provisioned and managed using infrastructure-as-code through AWS CloudFormation, ensuring consistency, repeatability, and change control across all environments. In addition, GoCloud implemented centralized monitoring, logging, security guardrails, backup oversight, patch management processes, and cost governance controls to deliver a fully managed AWS environment capable of supporting Luxia’s global growth and enterprise requirements.

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.

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: Application workloads run on Amazon ECS Fargate, with deployments automated through AWS CodePipeline. Pipelines connect directly to GitHub, so code pushes trigger build, test, and deploy steps for faster iteration.

Production: ECS Fargate clusters operate across multiple AZs for high availability. Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL (Multi-AZ cluster with writer and reader instances): Serves as the central production database, providing transactional integrity for write-heavy workloads while scaling out read traffic across replicas to support reporting, analytics, and API queries. Aurora’s automated backups, replication, and failover ensure high durability and minimal downtime, addressing previous challenges with manual replication and failover management. ChromaDB on EC2 supports specialized vector database use cases.

Frontend Applications: Web frontends are hosted using AWS Amplify, giving scalable and managed hosting with simple CI/CD integration

• Service Discovery: AWS Cloud Map is used across ECS workloads to enable service discovery, making it easier for applications to communicate reliably.

S3 Buckets: Dedicated S3 buckets handle CloudFormation artifacts, backups, deployment builds, and logs. All buckets are private, encrypted, and follow least-privilege access policies.

Luxia uses AWS CloudFormation to enable AWS Config across all accounts and regions, ensuring complete visibility and compliance. CloudFormation provisions the setup so that all resource types are recorded, with global resources such as IAM captured in a single region to prevent duplication. It also automates the storage of configuration history and snapshots in an encrypted, access-controlled S3 bucket within the Log Archive account, with logging enabled for added security. Through this automation, data from Development, Staging, and Production accounts is consistently directed to the central bucket, creating a unified, audit-ready repository.

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.

GoCloud delivers ongoing Managed Services through a structured operating model aligned with AWS best practices. This includes 24/7 monitoring and alerting, incident management with defined SLAs, proactive patch and vulnerability management, backup monitoring and recovery testing, cost optimization reviews, and controlled change management processes. Monthly service review meetings provide performance reporting, security posture updates, compliance status, and optimization recommendations, ensuring continuous improvement and operational excellence.
