AWS Engineering

Build on AWS with Mindera

We build, run, secure and modernise production systems on AWS, across six areas and more than 40 services.

We manage a full range of platforms from products that handle hundreds of transactions per second to mobile apps with 1.7 million monthly users.

We are an AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner.

Six areas of expertise

Our clients partner with Mindera on 40+ AWS services used in production.

1/3
  • Compute & containers

    Containerised microservices, serverless workloads and event-driven backends for core business platforms.

    Data, streaming & analytics

    Transactional data, caching and real-time streaming at scale, with the analytics layer on top.

  • Generative AI & ML

    Generative AI on Amazon Bedrock, and machine learning models trained, deployed and monitored on Amazon SageMaker.

    Security & governance

    Identity, threat detection, secrets and compliance for regulated and high-traffic systems.

  • Networking & delivery

    Global content delivery, private connectivity between services and accounts, and API management.

    Migration & modernisation

    Moving off legacy platforms and other clouds, then cutting what the new AWS platform costs to run.

Compute, containers & serverless

We build and run core business platforms on AWS including containerised microservices on EKS and ECS, serverless functions on Lambda, and event-driven backends that grow with traffic instead of needing to be resized manually.

For one retailer we replaced a licensed in-store checkout with a custom MACH build (microservices, APIs, cloud-native, headless), and sales through it rose 135%.

AWS services: EC2, EKS, ECS, Lambda, ECR, EBS

Data, streaming & analytics

We run transactional data, caching and real-time streaming at scale, and manage the analytics layers on top. We size ElastiCache from measured load, which cut one client's caching bill by 64%.

For a platform with more than 1.3 million active members, we stream operational events from AWS into a data warehouse, with data contracts that raise an alert on invalid events or a missed SLA.

Our event streaming has carried hundreds of transactions a second, and tens of millions in revenue on a single peak day, without losing a single event.

AWS services: RDS, DynamoDB, ElastiCache (Redis and Valkey), Kinesis Data Streams and Firehose, MSK, Glue, Athena, QuickSight

Generative AI & machine learning

We build generative AI into production systems on Amazon Bedrock, and train, deploy and monitor machine learning models on Amazon SageMaker with MLOps pipelines. We help clients choose the right model for each job, keep data inside your own AWS account, and track cost and quality once deployed.

We also help clients discover viable use cases through consulting, workshops and hackathons. In three days, one client's teams turned dozens of ideas into a handful of working prototypes, and the strongest went on into discovery.

AWS services: Amazon Bedrock, Amazon SageMaker

Security, identity & governance

We secure high-traffic, sensitive and regulated systems: who can access what, how threats are detected, where secrets live, and how you stay compliant with controls designed into the platform from the first sprint.

Mindera is ISO 27001 certified for information security management.

AWS services: IAM, WAF, Shield, GuardDuty, Macie, Security Hub, Secrets Manager, KMS, AWS Config, Cognito, Firewall Manager

Networking & delivery

We build how traffic reaches your services and moves between them through global content delivery on CloudFront, private connectivity between services and accounts, and managed APIs.

One platform we run on AWS serves more than 100 million visits a month with canary releases reaching a small share of users first, so apps update with zero downtime.

AWS services: VPC, Route 53, CloudFront, API Gateway, Transit Gateway, PrivateLink and VPC endpoints, Client VPN, Certificate Manager

Migration & modernisation

We move systems off legacy platforms and other clouds onto AWS, then keep optimising what they cost to run.

Every migration starts with an assessment of what you run today and what it costs. From there, each workload is rehosted, replatformed or refactored, depending on what it needs, and moved in waves rather than in one cut-over.

We have moved whole legacy stacks onto EKS one service at a time, with no downtime.

AWS services: DataSync, Step Functions, Systems Manager, CloudTrail, CloudWatch, AWS Backup, EFS, Transfer Family

Cost optimisation results

Measured on high-traffic AWS platforms, across development, test and production.

1/4
  • $392K a year saved

    Confirmed annual savings across development, pre-production and production, with more still bedding in.

    44% lower dev compute cost

    Long-unused development environments removed, taking daily EC2 spend from about $200 to $111.

  • 92% lower storage cost

    EBS volumes on the staging cluster moved from io2 to gp3.

    64% lower caching cost

    28 ElastiCache Redis replication groups resized to match real load.

  • 39% fewer staging nodes

    Kubernetes nodes scaled down after tightening CPU and memory requests.

    97% lower WAF cost

    Pre-production WAF right-sized, and production rules brought under the 1,500-WCU pricing tier.

  • 85M fewer logs indexed a day

    Request logs turned into metrics before indexing, with errors and warnings still indexed and archived.
