Fischer Homes runs a third-party application called Sapphire. Sapphire is a multi-tiered line-of-business application that provides material and cost planning for new homes. To understand what was needed, Fischer Homes identified the challenges they were facing with their current application configuration and AWS environment:
- Slow performance. The existing Sapphire application takes 15 minutes in Fischer Homes’ shortest business use case to complete workload cycles running on the third-party AWS environment.
- Cloud dependence. Fischer Homes wanted to migrate the Sapphire application to their own AWS tenant to reduce dependency on the software vendor and reduce total cost of ownership.
- Security and architecture best practices. Fischer Homes needed to ensure network security and architecture best practices were fully implemented and successfully patch tested before migrating to their own AWS environment.
