PREP Design, an Australian architectural visualisation studio, needed to modernise its infrastructure to handle increasingly complex 3D rendering workloads. Fitzroy IT delivered a robust AWS environment that automated infrastructure management, improved scalability, and freed the PREP team to focus on design innovation.
Allowed PREP’s team to focus on high-value architectural design and visualisation rather than IT maintenance.
Rebuilt legacy infrastructure on AWS, replacing manual processes with scalable cloud services.
Infrastructure automation eliminated manual setup, boosting efficiency and reducing errors.
PREP Design needed a reliable, scalable solution to support high-performance rendering and design projects while reducing manual infrastructure work.
PREP’s on-premises setup faced several limitations:
Teams relied on time-consuming, error-prone manual server configuration.
Existing infrastructure couldn’t flexibly handle spikes in rendering workloads.
Technical overhead distracted the team from their core creative work.
Fitzroy IT designed a tailored AWS migration strategy focused on performance, automation, and scalability to meet PREP Design’s growing business demands.
Lift-and-shift migration to AWS for a scalable, resilient, and future-proof infrastructure.
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to standardise deployments and remove manual processes.
Right-sized AWS resources to reduce environmental impact while optimising cost and efficiency.
To deliver a reliable, scalable, and future-ready platform, Fitzroy IT implemented a modern cloud-native technology stack that emphasised automation, security, and performance.
EC2, RDS for scalable compute and database services; S3 for storage; CloudFormation for infrastructure automation.
Automated and consistent deployments across multiple environments.
CloudWatch and AWS logging tools for performance insights and reliability.
Identity and access management with encryption and compliance to safeguard sensitive design data.
The migration to AWS delivered significant improvements in speed, efficiency, sustainability, and reliability for PREP Design.
Batch rendering times reduced from 4 hours to 1 hour, improving project turnaround.
Fully automated and reproducible infrastructure setup replaced manual provisioning.
Development, Staging, QA, and Production environments deployed with uniform configurations.
Right-sized infrastructure reduced carbon footprint and improved operational efficiency.
