ONCOMFORT – MIGRATION TO THE CLOUD

About the customer

Founded in 2017, Oncomfort Digital Sedation™ is a completely new method for relieving patients’ pain and anxiety before, during and after medical procedures. This digital therapy combines clinical hypnotherapy and integrative therapeutic techniques through Virtual Reality.

The challenge

As a start-up, Oncomfort primary focus is to create and develop a product providing cutting-edge Digital Sedation. In the midst of this race, the need to rely on an infrastructure which can sustain the growth of Oncomfort became more and more important. The cloud is the answer, but migrating the existing workload is no easy task. This is why Oncomfort choose Arηs Spikeseed as their cloud partner for this crucial mission.

The project

ARHS Spikeseed supports Oncomfort by providing the following services:

• Cloud Migration

  Arηs Spikeseed Cloud Experts helped Oncomfort to migrate their existing software and infrastructure to the cloud, by following-up the project from the design phase to the production go-live.

• Software Development

  Thanks to Arηs Spikeseed Software Development expertise, the existing software was smoothly adapted to the cloud paradigm, delivering optimized performance and capabilities.

Project Solution

Oncomfort requested support on two different axes: 1) migration of the current infrastructure to the cloud and 2) development and optimization of the current mobile application.

• Migration to the cloud: A pre-configured AMI was built and deployed on AWS EC2 instances. The entire infrastructure deployment has been automated following AWS best practices. Arηs Spikeseed Cloud Experts followed the project and ensured a smooth transition between the old and the new infrastructure.
