C-Quence is a leading innovator in the insurance sector, redefining how insurance products are built, distributed, and managed through cutting-edge technology. With a strong focus on innovation, automation, and data-driven decision-making, C-Quence delivers seamless digital solutions that enhance efficiency and customer experience. As the business grew, managing their AWS environment became increasingly complex. To maintain performance, security, and cost efficiency, they needed a trusted partner to optimise and manage their cloud infrastructure. That’s where Bytes stepped in. As an AWS Premier Tier partner with deep Managed Services expertise, Bytes helped C-Quence unlock the full potential of AWS, delivering a secure, scalable foundation for growth.

Before partnering with Bytes, C-Quence had bold ambitions for growth and innovation but recognised the need for expert support to enhance efficiency and scalability. Here’s what they set out to achieve:

• Empowered Innovation – A dynamic, forward-thinking team with ambitious ideas, eager to accelerate change and drive transformation, all while managing day-to-day operations effectively.
• Optimised Infrastructure – Aligning with AWS best practices, including the AWS Well-Architected Framework (WAR), to improve performance and future-proof their environment.
• Enhanced Security & Resilience – Implementing proactive monitoring and protection to ensure continuous, round-the-clock security.
• Maximised Cost Efficiency – Identifying opportunities to optimise their AWS investment and extract greater value from their cloud spend.
• Advanced AWS Adoption – Unlocking the full potential of AWS capabilities—such as EC2 instances, scalability, and resiliency features—to build a more agile and robust infrastructure.

These challenges prompted C-Quence to seek expert guidance to optimise their AWS environment.
 

Bytes initiated the engagement with a comprehensive AWS Well-Architected Review (WAR), to assess C-Quence’s existing infrastructure and identify key areas for improvement. Over two months, Bytes helped C-Quence transition to a Business-As-Usual (BAU) model, implementing:

• Virtual Private Network (VPN) – Enabling secure, encrypted connections between on-premises infrastructure and AWS for seamless access to critical workloads.
• Amazon EC2 – Optimising EC2 instances for improved scalability, performance, and cost efficiency by dynamically adjusting resource usage.
• Amazon CloudWatch – Providing real-time visibility into system performance and security events, allowing faster issue resolution.
• Druva Backup – Deploying secure, automated backups to safeguard critical data and ensure business continuity.
• AWS Landing Zone / Control Tower – Creating a structured governance framework with centralised security controls and improved compliance for easier management of AWS workloads.

The result? A more scalable, resilient, and efficient AWS environment.
