How Camly leverage the Cloud for Business Innovation

About Camly.co

CamLy Platform is a global real estate investment technology platform developed by IMMICA Corporation with over 11 years of experience in the field of real estate investment in the United States. Camly Platform provides a variety of investment forms and projects ranging from hotels to shopping centers, apartments, individual houses, etc. The company has six operations in major cities including Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang, Tokyo- Japan, Los Angeles, and Huntington Beach – United States.

The Challenge

Over the past few years, the number of people who seek real estate investment in the U.S. has grown steadily. To capture this opportunity, CamLy Platform would need to implement a new system which is expected to handle 20,000 – 30,000 transactions per day, with roundly 10,000 active users and 100,000 registered users. Camly also identifies security to be their top priority. Additionally, the platform is anticipated to have some spikes during large scale-events or when new investment is opened.

The Solution

Camly Platform realizes they would need a cloud hosting solution where they can leverage managed services to meet their end-user demands while maintaining security, reliability, and operational excellence. They have decided to choose AWS because of its strengths in these aspects. VTI Cloud was quickly engaged with Camly Platform to work on this project. Both sides have been working closely to discuss the expectations and to gather system requirements. After thorough analyses and excellent support from Camly team, we have agreed on an AWS architecture with the following characteristics:

• Ensuring encryption at rest and encryption on transit, also implementing WAF to prevent bad requests to the website, and DDOS.
• Auto Scaling to make sure the system can maintain performance during demand spikes and decrease capacity during lulls to reduce costs.
• Applying CICD model to automate the development and deployment process, eliminate the need to deploy manually.
• Deploying the system to multi-Availability zone to prevent a single point of failure
• Other AWS services: CloudFormation, CDN CloudFront, Elastic Beanstalk, Database Replica

The Benefits

The system successfully met the deadline of the project. During the first large scale-event, the system has been exceptionally reliable while maintaining a high-security level.

1. Security

Implemented data encryption

2. Reliability

With Auto Scaling and Application load balancer in place, the system met the demand of the platform users. In case the platform has a problem with the current region, they can easily use CloudFormation to run it in another region.

3. Operational Excellent

CICD: Save time to manually deploy code, reduce the need for maintenance
