NEON CORP. provides turnkey eCommerce platforms and retail solutions to the Canadian marketplace. It serves as an authorized third-party service provider for fashion and footwear retail stores and mono branded eCommerce websites.
NEON offers eCommerce platform build services including order fulfillment and management, customer service, marketing services, hosting and cybersecurity. The company wanted to shift to a managed cloud solution that would allow it to maintain its business growth and efficiently add new clients to its eCommerce platforms.
NEON turned to long-time partner Aptum for its proven ability to deliver technology-agnostic cloud solutions, and managed services with certified professionals and comprehensive support.
Aptum provided NEON with Azure Design & Build, Azure Managed Services and Aptum Managed WAF (Web Application Firewall), as well as Advisory & Consulting Services to effectively transition the eCommerce properties to the Azure Kubernetes environment.
The overall NEON footprint combines cloud-native technology with complementary services such as Alert Logic managed detection and response for enhanced security.
Aptum’s wide-ranging expertise and flexible approach enabled NEON to smoothly transition from an IaaS model to a managed service with a containerized Azure Kubernetes Service.
From a compliance point of view, NEON also benefits from Aptum’s myriad security certifications. Data security standards such as PCI DSS represent a significant hurdle for security teams, since each standard is rigorous, requiring hundreds of controls to achieve compliance. Aptum is now aligned as a partner of NEON to deliver against vendors’ compliance and governance requirements.
The new solution has addressed NEON’s business challenges. Aptum has helped them unlock the intrinsic value of hyperscale cloud, making it easy to scale their operations to add new brands as needed, while enhancing their overall security posture.
Hosting their eCommerce platform in Azure has greatly improved their ability to grow the business. And with a highly secure, compliant environment, they are able to meet contractual obligations with suppliers and improve the overall customer experience.
NEON is actively invested in the management and maintenance of their digital footprint, and Aptum’s managed service complements their expertise and contributes to improving their credibility and responsiveness.
