VillaControl faced significant challenges managing their legacy DNS setup, which involved complex redirects across Verio, AWS, and Wix. This system introduced reliability issues, inefficiencies, and increased costs.
Additionally, they lacked a scalable disaster recovery (DR) solution that would ensure high availability and minimize downtime during outages. The existing infrastructure failed to support their growing business needs, hindering their ability to scale efficiently.
As an Advanced Tier AWS Consulting Partner, zeb modernized the VillaControl’s cloud infrastructure by migrating their DNS services to AWS Route 53 and implementing a robust disaster recovery architecture. We migrated all DNS records from Verio to AWS Route 53, centralizing DNS management and eliminating the inefficiencies of multi-step redirects. This resulted in greater reliability and simplified routing.

To ensure business continuity, we designed a multi-availability zone (AZ) architecture within AWS, which included Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs), load balancers, auto-scaling groups, and Amazon RDS with cross-AZ backup capabilities. This setup enabled automatic failover during outages, minimizing downtime. Additionally, the infrastructure was designed to be scalable, leveraging AWS’s fault tolerance to support future growth with minimal maintenance. By utilizing AWS Route 53 and services like load balancers and RDS, we built a solution that is not only resilient but also ready to scale as the VillaControl’s business evolves.
Benefits: Reliability, scalability, and cost efficiency
- Enhanced DNS Reliability: Migrating to AWS Route 53 improved the reliability of DNS management, eliminating the complexities of redirects and offering faster, more dependable access to corporate and application services.
- Business Continuity with Disaster Recovery: The multi-AZ architecture significantly improved VillaControl’s disaster recovery capabilities. Automatic failover ensured data availability and integrity, reducing potential downtime.
- Cost Optimization: The use of AWS services such as auto-scaling, load balancing, and cross-AZ backups optimized infrastructure usage, reducing manual intervention and operational costs. VillaControl realized a 70% reduction in DNS management costs.
- Scalable Infrastructure for Growth: The solution was implemented in just 3 weeks, ensuring minimal disruption to business operations. The scalable architecture supports future expansion, enabling VillaControl to meet evolving business demands effortlessly.
