Meet OOTI

OOTI is a leading company in the project management software industry, providing innovative solutions that simplify project planning and execution for teams of all sizes. Its comprehensive platform offers a suite of tools designed to enhance productivity and collaboration, allowing teams to manage tasks, track time, and allocate resources efficiently. OOTI's flagship product empowers teams to plan, execute, and monitor projects seamlessly from start to finish.

The Challenge

OOTI faced challenges migrating from Amazon EKS to AWS ECS including frequent 502 timeouts, fragmented log visibility, and TLS/SSL setup complications. These issues risked SLO breaches and degraded responsiveness, critical factors for a project management platform that relies on smooth operation for customer success.

The Solution

DoiT provided Cloud Reliability Engineering expertise to develop a comprehensive migration strategy. The team configured Amazon ECS with VPC endpoints, new Security Groups, and tailored ECS clusters with autoscaling. DoiT moved Celery tasks to ECS for better resource management, leveraged AWS Fargate Spot for cost optimization, and provided training on Docker and ECS management.

Results

  • Achieved 65% savings on compute costs through AWS Fargate Spot optimization
  • Eliminated 502 timeout errors with improved traffic management and load balancing
  • Centralized all logs in Amazon CloudWatch with automated alarms for enhanced reliability
  • Implemented high availability across multiple Availability Zones with self-healing infrastructure

Training and Knowledge Transfer

Throughout the migration, DoiT provided continuous support and training to empower OOTI's team. James trained the team on Docker and ECS management, including creating ECS task definitions and using Amazon EventBridge for automated task scheduling. This knowledge transfer enabled OOTI to independently manage and maintain their new infrastructure while streamlining day-to-day operations.

What's Next

Following the successful migration, OOTI is positioned to continue optimizing its cloud infrastructure. The company plans to refine its Amazon RDS setup for improved performance and predictability while exploring additional efficiency opportunities. OOTI aims to maintain an ongoing relationship with DoiT, leveraging product insights and expert guidance as it scales to meet growing customer needs.

What they say

PicnicAI

“PerfectScale gives us the confidence to automate Kubernetes optimization while letting our engineers focus on building what matters.”

Josh Zarrabi, Infrastructure Engineer

Stefanini

“Without PerfectScale by DoiT, I don't know how we would do it. We'd have to have twice the number of people on my team to stay on top of it. With PerfectScale, we can focus on the more strategic issues.”

David Adkins, Director of Software and Platform Engineering

Software Projects

Connecting IBM and AWS privately was the piece we needed to get right, and we wanted to move faster on it than we could on our own. DoiT worked through the options with us, found the subnet overlap that was breaking the routing, and made it stable. That unblocked everything else.

DevOps Lead, Software Projects

Shasta Cloud

Attribute™'s platform is truly unique. We now have crystal-clear visibility into our cloud spend at the workload and tenant level, and that insight has already led to actionable savings and powerful insights as we further scale our service.

Paul White, VP of Engineering, Shasta Cloud
