To architect and provision AWS Cloud Infrastructure to support a globally scalable, multi-tenanted, easily configurable,and secure SaaS product on AWS with the lowest operational costs possible. Prolink also requested that we engageour application development partner to deliver functionality for the core business logic and web application front end.

Once we met to discuss our requirements FIRSTBLOX informed us of the opportunity to run our product in such a cost-efficient manner it really piqued our interest. Once we saw some examples of similar work developed by FIRSTBLOX we were ready to get started.
