BC Hydro | Utilities | 7700 | $5.0B | Canada | Amazon Web Services (AWS) | Amazon EC2 | Application Hosting and Computing Services | 2017 | In 2017, BC Hydro implemented Amazon EC2 as part of an Application Hosting and Computing Services deployment to accelerate utility computation for power generation output management. The engagement targeted a compute-first use case where model runs needed to execute roughly ten times per month, and previous approaches using existing laptops required 10 to 20 hours per run which was operationally impractical. The implementation provisioned ephemeral EC2 compute capacity sized to 216 CPUs and automated lifecycle operations to support on-demand model execution. Configurations focused on rapid provisioning and teardown, the ability to deploy data and program code to the cloud in approximately five minutes, spinning up the compute environment in 10 to 15 minutes, executing the model in 10 to 12 minutes, and destroying the environment in five to 10 minutes. Onica by Rackspace Technology provided systems integration and software engineering to plan and implement the AWS-based solution, defining necessary components and integration patterns with AWS platform services. The project emphasized automated deployment pipelines and secure handling of model input and output data, embedding operational controls to manage cost and data protection within the Amazon EC2 environment. Operationally the Amazon EC2 implementation enabled BC Hydro to run short burst, high compute workloads on demand while controlling per-run cost, with a cited total cost per run of approximately $10. Governance and process changes included automated orchestration for provisioning and teardown, and tighter operational procedures for secure data deployment and retrieval, enabling the utility to adopt an on-demand compute model for power generation output management. | |

Alistair Group | Transportation | 600 | $150M | Tanzania | Amazon Web Services (AWS) | Amazon DynamoDB | Database Management | 2019 | In 2019, Alistair Group implemented Amazon DynamoDB as the primary data store for a new serverless logistics application. Amazon DynamoDB served as the Database underpinning a RESTful API backend designed to manage a subcontractor fleet operating across 14 countries and moving 650,000 tons of cargo per year. The implementation delivered functional modules for load assignment distribution, driver progress reporting, fleet asset tracking, and collection of driver performance metrics. The RESTful API implemented via Amazon API Gateway used custom authorizers, AWS Lambda functions hosted the application logic, and Amazon DynamoDB maintained transactional state, while Amazon DynamoDB streams and AWS Lambda replicated a subset of data to Amazon Elasticsearch Service for full text search and time series analysis. Amazon Cognito provided authentication for administrators, fleet managers and drivers, the user interface was built with Angular for web users, and an Android app plus Amazon SNS provided push notifications to drivers for new load assignments. Onica by Rackspace Technology worked alongside Alistair Group as the implementation partner, developing the business use case in a sprint based, iterative approach and beginning the stack with the API layer rather than a traditional web server. The deployment architecture is serverless and cloud native on Amazon Web Services, aligning operational coverage across fleet operations and dispatch functions and supporting hundreds of trucks and drivers within the companys contractor ecosystem. The outcome was a streamlined, automated operations model where drivers receive assignments and report progress in real time, and operational teams consume richer reporting from replicated data in Amazon Elasticsearch Service. The solution was designed to keep costs low while allowing flexibility to scale up and down without re architecting the platform later, with Amazon DynamoDB as the central Database for transactional workloads. | |

Alistair Group | Transportation | 600 | $150M | Tanzania | Amazon Web Services (AWS) | Amazon Lambda | Apps Development | 2019 | In 2019, Alistair Group deployed Amazon Lambda as the core compute layer for a serverless logistics application in the Apps Development category to manage a subcontractor fleet across its East Africa operations. The deployment supports the company that moves 650,000 tons of cargo per year across 14 countries and was scoped to coordinate contractors, drivers, trucks, trailers and load assignments for hundreds of vehicles. Onica by Rackspace Technology worked with Alistair Group to build a proprietary serverless application using a sprint based, iterative approach. The implementation began with Amazon API Gateway hosting a RESTful API and custom authorizers, a frontend implemented in Angular, and an Android driver app for field interaction. Amazon Lambda functions host the application logic for each API call, while Amazon DynamoDB serves as the primary transactional data store. A subset of DynamoDB data is replicated via DynamoDB streams and AWS Lambda to Amazon Elasticsearch Service to enable full text search and analysis of time series data collected from the subcontractor fleet. Amazon Cognito is used to authenticate administrators, fleet managers and drivers, and Amazon SNS is used to send push notifications to drivers for new load assignments. This architecture emphasizes serverless integration patterns, event driven replication, and API centric orchestration. Governance and rollout followed a sprint based development model with Onica providing cloud native development, cloud adoption and migration, and application management and operations capabilities. Operational impacts include centralized dispatch and automated driver assignment workflows, on the go reporting of driver performance metrics, and streamlined operational processes. The solution explicitly kept costs low while allowing flexibility to scale up and scale down without rearchitecting, leveraging Amazon Lambda as the scalable compute foundation. | |
