Established in 1998 and based in Hamilton, New Zealand, Enlighten Designs is one of New Zealand’s largest website design companies delivering innovative and customer focused technology solutions. Their clients range from medium enterprises to large corporate and government organizations. While Enlighten Designs relies on its own infrastructure based in Auckland to serve its client base, leveraging the cloud for overflow capacity has been very rewarding.
Enlighten Designs uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) to stream live sporting events. Recent events include the 2010 cricket series consisting of both One Day Internationals and Test cricket series between New Zealand and Pakistan, and the Winter Olympics Vancouver 2010. Both instances have been streamed over the Sky Sports website. “AWS has made our streaming process for both the Black Caps series and Winter Olympics extremely easy to implement and maintain.”
