GS1

Together with AWS, we helped GS1 migrate its critical systems to the cloud.
In addition, we refactor your platforms to ensure optimal operations and establish a solid foundation for your long-term digital transformation.

The challenge:

Its physical infrastructure had reached the limit of capacity, which represented an obstacle to its growth and digital transformation. To ensure operational continuity, improve efficiency, and lay the foundation for future innovations, GS1 made the decision to migrate its critical systems to the cloud.
In collaboration with AWS, ITERA was selected as a strategic partner thanks to its extensive knowledge, certifications, and experience in cloud services.

What did we do?:

The process began with the definition of a clear and strategic roadmap. This path was divided into four main waves:

  • In the first stage, the elements originally designed to operate in the AWS cloud were migrated, ensuring an agile and seamless start.
  • Stages two and three represented the biggest challenge. Here, critical systems were migrated and some key platforms had to be refactored to maximize their performance within AWS components.
  • Finally, in the fourth wave, cloud infrastructure was consolidated, leaving behind the limits of a physical and finite environment.

    The joint work of ITERA and AWS engineers and specialists not only ensured operational continuity during the transition, but also provided invaluable technical support to optimize operations. Thanks to this effort, the company has been able to establish a solid foundation for its technological evolution.

The results:

With this implementation, GS1 was able to:

  • Greater stability and operational continuity, thanks to an optimized cloud infrastructure.

  • Performance optimization, with the refactoring of critical platforms.

  • Solid technological base, facilitating the integration of artificial intelligence and new technologies.

  • Scalability and operational efficiency, eliminating the limits of traditional physical infrastructure.

Based on all this, today GS1 is looking forward with confidence. So much so that its new digital transformation plan for the next five years includes the incorporation of artificial intelligence and more efficient technological operations, laying the foundations for an innovative and, above all, promising future.

At ITERA, we are proud to have been part of this big step and to have contributed to GS1 achieving its strategic objectives.

Let’s go into the future together!
