Project Details

Our client, Shield Leasing, initiated a program aimed at providing individuals with limited or no credit access to affordable payments for new vehicle parts. However, the current system was outdated and lacked sufficient security measures, causing delays in delivery, and resulting in a backlog of customers.

Problem

Shield Leasing enlisted a previous vendor to develop the initial application but was not satisfied with the result. They sought out a partnership with an agency capable of modernizing their current application and implementing additional security controls to ensure its security, scalability, and reliability.

Goals

Speed

Modernization

Security

Reliability

Scalability

Implementation

Solution

IntraEdge conducted an evaluation of Shield Leasing’s existing application to identify areas of improvement and suggested an alternative architecture. Following this assessment, a new approach did not necessitate rewriting the existing application code. Instead, we embarked on a gradual modernization of their application architecture, transitioning to microservices and containers.

These solutions provided:

High Scalability

Fault tolerance

Robust security measures

Minimal operational overhead

Outcome

IntraEdge was able to provide Sheild Leasing an application process that promoted high scalability, robust security measures, fault tolerance, and demanded minimal operational overhead.

Achievements

IntraEdge was initially engaged in building out the architecture and infrastructure on AWS. However, due to the trust we established with Shield Leasing, they chose to outsource the complete development and maintenance of their application portal to IntraEdge.

Through meticulous architectural considerations and innovative design strategies, we achieved the feat of building, enhancing, and maintaining Shield Leasing’s application portal with a lean team.
