Working together, TES was able to fulfil its cloud ambitions utilising AWS, while keeping its existing 7 million registered users online in over 274 countries engaged with its fast growing online communities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cContino were instrumental in kick-starting the change at TES, we had very big ambitions and it was crucial that we bring in people who had already done it before.\u201d states Clifton Cunningham, CTO of TES Global.<\/p>\n<p>Benjamin Wootton, Co-Founder at Contino, states, \u201cA key part of the strategy was based around moving from a private datacentre to AWS\u2019 public cloud. Efficiency and cost savings were paramount to this move, and we\u2019re thrilled to have been able to help TES Global cut costs so dramatically. It was recognised by the leadership team that an AWS-based solution, combined with a DevOps approach, would be significantly more cost-effective to run than a datacentre or co-location facility.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Edited from press release by <a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/u\/0\/115822809293912579733\/posts\" target=\"_blank\">Cecilia Rehn<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deployment of Amazon Web Services has helped the digital education company enable a faster time to market, increase agility, and improve staff retention.
