From Legacy Desktop to Cross-Platform Cloud: Reinventing Device Management for a Global Audio Brand

About the client

The Client

Our client is a global giant in the professional audio and sound equipment industry. Their innovations are the industry standard, powering world-class recording studios, live event stages, and creator home setups.

Challenge

The Business Challenge

The client's existing device management system was built on a dated desktop application that had become a significant operational bottleneck. The primary challenges were

  • Architectural Rigidity:
    The monolithic architecture could not scale to handle a growing number of devices or users, posing a risk to future product launches.
  • Outdated User Interface:
    A legacy UI/UX limited user adoption and was incompatible with modern mobile platforms.
  • Operational Inefficiencies:
    The system required manual intervention for critical license and firmware synchronization, introducing costly delays and risk.

Solution

The Solution:
A Future-Ready Cloud-Native Platform

Pacewisdom engineered a resilient, secure platform from the ground up.We built a single Flutter application that delivers a consistent, modern experience across desktop and mobile platforms.

This cloud-native desktop and mobile app connects directly to audio devices for real-time management, backed by a secure and infinitely scalable AWS cloud infrastructure. The new system fully automates license and file management, eliminating previous manual processes.

Technology used

Technical Architecture & Implementation

We implemented a robust ecosystem using best-in-class AWS services and modern DevOps practices to ensure high availability and security.

Impact

Cloud-Native Application Core

The platform is powered by Amazon ECS with Fargate for serverless container orchestration, ensuring scalability without server management. Amazon RDS provides a managed database, while Amazon ElastiCache offers high-speed caching for real-time sync operations.

DevOps Automation for Media Technology

We established a complete DevOps automation for media technology pipeline using GitLab for CI/CD. This enables automated testing, security scanning with SonarQube, and zero-downtime deployments.

Layered Security & Identity

A zero-trust security model was implemented using AWS WAF for threat protection and AWS Cognito for secure, role-based user authentication
