SolidusLabs is the first crypto-native market surveillance and risk monitoring hub tailored for digital assets. SolidusLabs’ technology enables safer crypto trading throughout the investment journey across all centralized and DeFi markets. Based in Wall Street, NY, with offices in Washington D.C., Tel Aviv, and London, they actively safeguard millions of retail and institutional entities worldwide by monitoring more than a trillion daily events. 

SolidusLabs leverages cutting-edge technologies, such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and blockchain, to provide real-time monitoring and analysis of financial data. 

SolidusLabs uses Kubernetes as the foundation of its application infrastructure to support the rapid growth in the crypto markets and meet the ever-increasing demand from its clients. 

Develeap provides SolidusLabs with the full range of DevOps, networking, secure cloud services and operations, effectively functioning as the SolidusLabs DevOps department. 

The challenge

To accomplish its business goals, SolidusLabs needed a platform that allows rapid deployment to multiple environments while maintaining stability and continuously supporting fast-paced scale-up and cost-effective scale-down. 

The decision was to leverage AWS services as the base, including Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) as the central processing platform and many other related AWS services. 

The solution

Develeap helped the customer identify the technological requirements based on SolidusLabs’ business needs, define the requisite architecture for both build deployment and run-time and implement it using the AWS well-architected methodology. 

Develeap’s teams stabilized SolidusLabs DevOps workflow and methodologies, including:

  • Stabilizing CI/CD processes
  • Provisioning cloud infrastructure resources
  • Moving to cloud-native Kubernetes solutions
  • Offering proper support to the company’s development teams. 

Therefore, collaborating with Develeap was vital to create sustainable production environments that expand in scale to allow SolidusLabs to offer flawless integration.

To establish a secure and optimized network infrastructure for SolidusLabs, Develeap implemented a comprehensive solution involving network architecture, compute optimization, monitoring, logging, Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) analysis, and the implementation of security best practices. This solution leverages several AWS services to ensure a robust and efficient environment.

The network architecture was carefully designed and implemented to provide a secure and scalable foundation. Develeap utilized AWS services such as Amazon Route 53 for DNS management, AWS Secrets Manager for credential storage, and AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) for SSL/TLS certificate management to establish reliable and secure communication between clients and services.

Compute optimization was achieved by leveraging AWS services like multi-cluster Amazon EKS environments, Amazon EMR, and AWS Batch. These services enable efficient management and processing of containerized applications, large-scale data, and batch workloads, ensuring scalability and cost-effectiveness.

Develeap implemented comprehensive solutions to monitor and log the environments, utilizing AWS services such as Amazon GuardDuty, AWS WAF, AWS Security Hub, and AWS Trusted Advisor, which were employed to monitor for potential threats continuously, protect applications from web exploits, provide centralized security visibility, and offer recommendations to optimize the AWS infrastructure configuration.

A Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) analysis was conducted for SolidusLabs’ AWS infrastructure to ensure cost efficiency. This analysis evaluated resource utilization, identified areas for optimization, and resulted in significant cost savings while maintaining performance and scalability.

The solution also prioritized implementing security best practices to achieve SOC2 compliance and ensure systems and data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Strict access controls, regular security assessments, and compliance monitoring were implemented to mitigate risks and maintain a secure environment.

Overall, the solution implemented by Develeap encompassed network architecture, compute optimization, monitoring and logging, TCO analysis, and security best practices. By utilizing various AWS services, a secure, efficient, and cost-effective infrastructure was established for SolidusLabs.
