As Wiris expanded its cloud footprint, the need for a structured, well-governed AWS foundation became increasingly important. To support continued growth, strengthen security, and improve long term operational efficiency, Wiris needed an environment built for scale and control.

About Wiris

Wiris is a global technology company delivering advanced math and science solutions used by millions of learners worldwide. Its platforms power large-scale digital education products that depend on reliability, security, and operational consistency.

As Wiris expanded its cloud footprint, the need for a structured, well-governed AWS foundation became increasingly important. To support continued growth, strengthen security, and improve long term operational efficiency, Wiris needed an environment built for scale and control.

The Challenge

Wiris was running workloads on AWS without a standardized multi-account structure or a centralized governance model. As its environment grew, this created increasing complexity around managing workloads, users, and access across teams and regions.

Visibility across accounts was limited. Security and access practices were not fully consistent. Enforcing governance policies across environments became more difficult over time. At the same time, maintaining cost control and operational consistency across multiple accounts required significant manual effort, making it harder to scale efficiently.

Without a unified and well-structured cloud foundation, Wiris faced growing challenges in balancing fast growth with the need for security, control, and operational clarity.

The Solution

CloudZone designed and implemented a standardized AWS Landing Zone to help Wiris support secure growth, stronger governance, and greater operational consistency.

The solution introduced a structured AWS Organizations setup that enabled a clear multi-account architecture with proper separation between environments. Identity and access management were centralized to create secure and consistent permissions across the organization. Integrated security and logging services were also implemented to improve visibility and strengthen control.

In addition, CloudZone established governance guardrails aligned with AWS best practices, enabling Wiris to apply policies consistently and operate its cloud environment in a more controlled, scalable, and efficient way.

The Results

Wiris now operates on a secure, well-architected AWS multi-account environment with stronger governance, improved security controls, and better operational efficiency.

With this new foundation in place, Wiris benefits from:

  • Centralized visibility and improved control across all environments
  • A stronger and more consistent security posture
  • Standardized operations aligned with AWS best practices
  • A scalable cloud foundation ready to support future growth

“CloudZone has been a valuable partner in helping us optimize and accelerate our global cloud strategy. Their infrastructure expertise, close collaboration with AWS, and agile day-to-day support have given us a strong foundation to move faster, operate more efficiently, and scale securely across our global markets.”
