04.01.2022 Helping hipages and Natural Therapy Pages navigate the complexity of an AWS cloud migration. Learn more: https://hubs.li/H0K6QKK0 Elabor8 worked with hipages and Natural Therapy Pages to setup a cutting-edge AWS infrastructure for running a global SaaS Platform. Elabor8 embarked on the challenging migration process by leveraging a value lens and radical transparency to provide a solution within budget that exceeded expectations on delivery. This improved infrastructure enabl...ed hipages to create new businesses with a click of a button. hipages is an online platform that connects consumers with trusted tradespeople to simplify home improvement. hipages is the leading online platform in the trade category by jobs posted in Australia with approximately 1.4 million jobs posted in FY2020, representing a job being posted approximately every 23 seconds on average. Natural Therapy Pages (NTP), is an online marketplace for natural health services and education, with over 200,000 monthly users and more than 10,000 natural health practitioners and courses in Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. Previously part of the hipages Group, NTP was sold by hipages in May 2020. Prior to the sale, the websites for hipages and NTP were being hosted using the same AWS infrastructure. To enable the sale and to better allow for the future development of the two sites the decision was made to separate the two entities. This required NTP to be moved under its own AWS account and infrastructure, and for the business and administrative processes & procedures to be updated to support this change. The clients also saw this as an opportunity to make improvements to their general infrastructure, to better support NTP’s functionality and use. Owing to the fact that both hipages and NTP services are 24/7, minimum disruption for clients was an important factor in this migration.
