  • Customer: Easilee, LLC
  • Owner: Ethan Spruill
  • Title of Use Case: Virtual Computing for Professional Services (Data Analysis & Marketing)

Customer Business Problem / Pain Points:

  1. Need for Amazon EC2 – Elastic Compute Cloud for Data Analysis

    • Limited local computing power – Existing workstations lacked the capacity to efficiently run advanced data models, simulations, or concurrent analysis tasks.
    • Scalability constraints – No agile way to scale resources up or down as workloads fluctuate.
    • Inconsistent availability – Hardware crashes and a lack of redundancy reduced continuity during client reporting deadlines.
    • Geographic limitations – Inability to remotely access computing environments when collaborating with distributed teams.
  2. Need for Amazon S3 – Secure Storage for Reliable Data Access

    • Data security risks – Sensitive marketing and analytics data stored on unencrypted local drives posed risks of unauthorized access or breaches.
    • Storage capacity limits – Growing datasets (e.g., historical campaigns, customer lists) overwhelmed costly local storage.
    • Accessibility issues – Location-bound storage hindered file sharing and retrieval, especially in remote or hybrid work setups.
    • Backup and recovery delays – No automated versioning or recovery mechanisms increase the risk of permanent data loss.

Solution:

We designed a new AWS cloud architecture tailored to Easilee’s professional services needs:

  • Amazon EC2 instances for advanced data analysis and simulations
  • Amazon S3 for centralized, secure, and scalable file storage with automated versioning and recovery
  • Robust security framework including encryption, access controls, and monitoring aligned with HIPAA requirements

Outcome:

Easilee achieved measurable results:

  • ~40% faster application response times
  • 20% reduction in infrastructure costs
  • Greater operational continuity with automated backups and zero unplanned downtime
  • Enhanced data security and accessibility, enabling remote collaboration without barriers
