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.

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.
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.
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.
Decoupled the application to leverage scalable, fully managed AWS services such as S3 and Redis.
Automated the starting and stopping of Dev environments during office hours to control costs, alongside automated backup and recovery strategies.
Provided proactive 24/7 monitoring and alerting across infrastructure and applications, with APM integration to identify opportunities for application-level performance improvements.
Faster launch, lower cost, less operational burden
