In the face of the exponential rise of cloud technologies, an energy company transitioned from an on-premises infrastructure to a cloud-based model using Amazon Web Services (AWS) to enhance scalability and efficiency. This shift was driven by the need to secure critical systems that manage communications with energy-delivering machinery, as their legacy system relied on intermittent static scans that left gaps in security. To address potential vulnerabilities in their hybrid cloud and on-premises environment, the company adopted Dynatrace for end-to-end application observability and runtime security protection. This move allowed the company to implement proactive detection and automated remediation of vulnerabilities, ensuring their services remained secure and resilient. The adoption of cloud-native services like AWS Lambda and EKS became central to their business strategy, enabling them to confidently accelerate their digital transformation and continue innovating in the energy sector.
