Migrating C&C’s e-commerce to the AWS cloud

C&C Casa e Construção is one of the largest retailers in the home center segment for flooring and wall coverings in Brazil. To maintain its competitive edge and meet the growing demand for online shopping, C&C decided to enhance its e-commerce platform. To achieve this, C&C partnered with T-Systems to migrate its e-commerce operations to the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud.

Customer pain points

  • The on-premises infrastructure struggled to handle traffic spikes during peak shopping seasons
  • Each seasonal peak identified the need to add new machines, which led to an environment structured around 19 servers to ensure that C&C customers had a good shopping experience
  • More speed, availability, assertiveness and scalability, given the prospect of growth

How T-Systems solved it

  • Migrating C&C’s e-commerce to the AWS cloud
  • Redefining the architecture used for the e-commerce operation, which helped in consolidating 19 physical servers into just seven cloud servers
  • Utilizing a combination of AWS services, including EC2, ELB, RDS, FSx and S3, to build a scalable and reliable infrastructure

It’s rewarding to work with partners like T-Systems and AWS to offer a successful customer experience.

  • Simplification of managing the environment
  • C&C successfully addressed its scalability, performance, and security challenges
