ABOUT

100% Uptime Migration of 15 Microservices from Azure App Service to AWS ECS

We migrated a distributed microservices architecture from Azure App Service to AWS ECS Fargate with zero downtime. The new setup included VPC-based isolation, automated CI/CD pipelines via Bitbucket, and service-to-service communication using AWS Service Connect—resulting in seamless scaling, reduced ops overhead, and improved system resilience.

DOWNTIME DURING MIGRATION

CHALLENGES

The platform required a seamless replatforming of 15 interdependent services without breaking availability or slowing delivery.

Complex microservice migration

15 tightly coupled services had to be moved across staging and production environments without breaking dependencies or affecting runtime.

High availability under traffic load

The system needed built-in redundancy and failover to support production traffic at all times.

Inconsistent and manual deployments

Releases across services were manually triggered, slowing down cycles and increasing deployment errors.

SOLUTIONS

We built a fault-tolerant, containerized architecture on AWS ECS with CI/CD automation and secure internal networking.

VPC with multi-AZ subnets

Built a secure AWS VPC spanning multiple Availability Zones, with isolated subnets for staging and production workloads.

ECS Fargate + ALB deployment

Replatformed services as containers using ECS Fargate, integrated with Application Load Balancers for traffic routing and failover.

CI/CD pipelines with Bitbucket

Created automated pipelines per microservice to handle build, test, and deployment—supporting fast, stable delivery.

Secure service-to-service networking

Configured AWS Service Connect to enable internal service discovery and secure communication across the stack.
