Mantel Group’s Managed Services offering includes Site Reliability and Continuous Improvement activity that will assist academyEx on a hosted AWS environment facilitating the management of your environment using modern cloud tooling, automation and monitoring with the backing of our team of Site Reliability engineers.
Company Overview
academyEX is a fast-growing education institute providing innovative learning programs to keep up with the quickly-evolving technical landscape. They are a NZQA Category 1 rated organisation and have over 80,000 learners online and in person.
The Problem
academyEX was created to address the imbalance of what children were learning at school and the skills that the future requires by introducing them to collaborative, creative, hands-on digital discovery and problem-solving. Now their suite of programmes is rapidly expanding as they identify and seek to build capability in the classroom, the workplace, and beyond, and enable New Zealanders to lead change.
To enable this transformation, academyEX has an AWS Cloud environment that would benefit from adopting best practices to be Well Architected, Cost Optimised and Secure.
With current resource constraints and the challenge with attracting, retaining and training suitably skilled AWS experts in-house, academyEx have engaged Mantel Group Managed Services/DevOps Management, which will asses/uplift the legacy tech, alleviate cyber security risks and privacy concerns, along with helping to leverage underutilised tech.
