The platform enables survivors to assess their health using a starter kit, facilitating doctor-patient consultations based on real-time data.

Business Situation

Onko Health faced hurdles in its DevOps automation, impacting deployment speed and content delivery.

  • Manual branch updates in CI/CD pipelines led to delays in new feature rollouts.
  • Lack of automation caused inefficiencies in managing multiple app releases.
  • Manual cache invalidation in AWS CloudFront resulted in outdated content accessibility.
  • Geographical content delays affected seamless app performance for global users.
  • Scalability concerns required a robust solution for continuous integration.
  • High manual intervention increased the risk of human errors in updates.

The Solution

Unthinkable leveraged AWS Lambda to automate Onko Health’s DevOps, improving efficiency and reducing deployment times.

To address manual branch updates, a Lambda function was integrated, triggering automatic pipeline creation whenever a new branch was added. This eliminated manual updates and accelerated development cycles.

Additionally, Unthinkable automated the CloudFront cache invalidation process, ensuring users across different regions accessed the latest app version without delay.

  • Automated branch updates for seamless CI/CD pipeline execution.
  • Lambda-based deployment to dynamically create new pipelines.
  • Event-driven infrastructure for instant branch recognition.
  • CloudFront cache automation to eliminate manual content updates.
  • Enhanced DevOps scalability through AWS Lambda integration.
  • Faster content distribution across geographies for real-time updates.

The Impact

By integrating AWS Lambda, Onko Health significantly improved its DevOps automation. Deployment speed increased by 20%, reducing bottlenecks in app releases. Automation of CloudFront cache invalidation ensured updated content reached global users instantly. These improvements empowered Onko Health to deliver a seamless user experience while minimizing manual intervention.
