The challenge
Onderlinge being a regulated financial institution, this provided an additional challenge as their IT infrastructure has to comply with the strict policies as set by the governing organisation “De Nederlandsche Bank (DNB)”. This led us to introduce the AWS legal department to the customer’s management/legal teams to help them prepare and comply to the required certifications, regulations and procedures, as stated by DNB. Leaning on the publicly available AWS Shared Services model and compliance program, we were able to provide these documents and subsequently DNB approved the migration of services to AWS, leading to a full migration to Amazon Workspaces as the main client solution for all employees, both on-premise and remotely.
The solution
To provide all Onderlinge employees secure and safe internet connectivity from their Workspaces, traffic destined for internet is being redirected over a custom built, highly available proxy cluster which both blocks unwanted internet access and filters possible malicious traffic for the employees. All employees were assigned a standardised Workspace instance type, allowing no exceptions for specific worker tasks that could possibly require more CPU or memory resources. These ‘resource-heavy’ tasks are offloaded to custom, application specific Amazon Appstream 2.0 stacks, optimising running cost and providing highly flexible, resource-intensive compute power on demand.
The result
simplifying cloud and integration together
