01 · The problem
Building applications faster, with mission-critical availability
- 01
A new construction model
The insurer needed a framework to develop portals and web services with agility, without managing servers.
- 02
Critical transactions
Critical applications require a consistent, highly available transactional database at scale.
- 03
More agile services
The objective was to produce solutions in less time, with quality and robustness in production.
02 · How we solved it
App Engine and Firebase for development, Spanner for transactions
- 1
Serverless portals and web services
App Engine and Firebase were adopted as the framework for agile development of portals and web services: the platform manages the infrastructure and the team focuses on the application.
- 2
Transactional database for critical applications
Google Spanner operates as the transactional database for critical applications, with consistency and high availability.
03 · The benefit for the client
More agile services and high availability in the cloud
