Amarti’s objective was to support the Very Group’s Logistics and Fulfillment team in delivering new functionality to their Customs Application in a timely manner. The focus was on streamlining processes, implementing serverless architecture, and propagating best practices for coding and ways of working.

Augmenting the Development Team:

• A team of amarti engineers joined the Very Group’s Logistics and Fulfilment team to support them in delivering new functionality to the Customs Application.
• Collaborated closely with the team to understand project requirements and identify areas for improvement.

Addressing Timely Updates and Workload Volume:

• Assisted the team in tackling the challenge of delivering updates quickly.
• Streamlined development processes and introduced efficient workflows to increase productivity and meet project deadlines.

Architecting Serverless Applications:

• Utilised our expertise in building serverless applications to guide the team in architecting and designing a Lambda-based event-driven architecture for the Customs Application.
• Leveraged multiple AWS services, such as Lambda, DynamoDB, and used Terraform, to create a scalable and robust infrastructure.

Propagating Best Practices:

• Advocated and disseminated best practices for coding, infrastructure management, and ways of working within the team.
• Conducted knowledge-sharing sessions, code reviews, and provided mentorship to help the team adopt industry-standard practices.
