Cloud The Final Destination
summary
Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research migrates a 9 TB CMS from NAS to S3, cutting restore time from hours to 10–15 minutes, and shifts point-to-point microservices to an event-driven pipeline by introducing Apache Kafka and MSK replication. Architecture mixes Fargate for microservices, EC2 containers for CMS, API Gateway + OPA for entitlements, with Elasticsearch -> AWS Elastic, MongoDB Atlas, SageMaker for personalization, Textract/Comprehend for OCR; cost kept near on‑prem and the multi‑region rollout operates in active/backup hybrid mode.
