“The flexibility that we achieved on AWS is outstanding we can do things that we couldn’t before. Transitioning the ECAT from its former cloud services provider to AWS was no small undertaking. After attending AWS Experience Based Acceleration workshops for modernizing legacy window containers on Amazon Electronic Container Service (Amazon ECS), a fully managed container orchestration service that makes it easy to deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications, the company was ready to start the multiphase migration of all seven existing calculation engines to AWS in addition to building 15 more engines natively on AWS. The challenge we faced wasn’t just the scalability of the users on the old system but the scalability of the engines too.”Ĭarrier had no prior experience using AWS and sought to learn quickly to improve its business and the services it provides. The cost kept increasing because we were using more containers. “We started scaling dramatically, and the previous system wasn’t catching up. “Although we used a different provider for a couple of years, it just seemed more difficult to do things, and some things just didn’t work,” says Sotirios Koupas, associate director of software development at Carrier. A slow ECAT means less productivity for the sales team and decreased profits for Carrier. When sales representatives need to evaluate and match equipment for a customer, ECAT lets them move quickly through different tools, calculate and select the appropriate unit, and find key performance characteristics to generate a recommendation about which HVAC family to suggest. The ECAT tool is crucial for Carrier’s sales operations in the commercial HVAC sector.
