The challenge
Where they started
Meridian's legacy core slowed every change and carried unpredictable costs. Leadership wanted the agility of the cloud, but a regulated financial platform left no room for downtime or security gaps during the move.
What we did
Our approach
Assessed the estate and designed a target architecture aligned to reliability and cost goals.
Stood up a secure landing zone and delivery pipelines as code, auditable end to end.
Migrated workloads in small, reversible waves with events keeping old and new in sync.
Handed over a platform the internal team could run, with SLOs and incident response in place.
The outcome
What changed
The migration completed with zero downtime and full audit evidence for regulators. Right-sizing and FinOps practices cut the cloud bill by 40%, and Meridian's team now ships changes to the core in days rather than quarters.
“They migrated our core platform to the cloud in safe waves with zero downtime. Our cloud bill dropped 40% along the way.”
