Reduced deployment downtime and improved feature delivery speed.
Lowered operational costs through automation and managed cloud services.
Established a secure, resilient infrastructure supporting global publishing operations.
Highlights / Intro
Harvard Business Publishing (HBP) is a global leader in business education and leadership development content. As their digital platforms grew in complexity, HBP needed a technology partner capable of modernizing their legacy systems and scaling delivery across multiple products and business units.
unosquare became that long-term partner, helping HBP transition from monolithic applications to a fully modern, containerized cloud ecosystem.
Challenge
Over a decade ago, HBP’s infrastructure relied on legacy applications that limited agility and increased costs.
Transition to a cloud-based architecture without disrupting active operations.
Enable faster deployments and improved recovery times.
Streamline engineering processes across multiple distributed teams.
Solution
unosquare implemented a full modernization strategy, migrating HBP’s infrastructure to AWS Cloud with automated deployment pipelines.
The team integrated Docker, Jenkins, and CloudFormation for CI/CD automation and monitoring through New Relic and Splunk.
By embedding infrastructure-as-code and adopting managed services, Unosquare reduced resource overhead and improved cost efficiency.
Today, unosquare represents 40% of HBP’s engineering organization, providing ongoing product development, modernization, and cloud support across divisions.
