Business Needs
The client wanted to transform the traditional construction practices through an innovative approach to building design, construction and ongoing support services. This would be achieved through high-quality and efficient offsite manufacturing with onsite installation of units.

Why AWS
The vast AWS global infrastructure was one of the primary reasons for choosing AWS. Using AWS services, LTM could leverage reliability and scalability for their applications, which can then directly contribute to amplify business outcomes. Also, the customer could benefit from a lower TCO by reducing the need to invest in large capital expenditures and providing a pay-as-you-go model. The ability to rapidly provide computation, storage, and networking infrastructure for new SAP projects and systems, including SAP HANA, in minutes versus weeks or months with traditional IT infrastructure, rendered AWS as the Cloud of Choice.
