Project Summary

Vates provided code migration and QA testing for a sensor manufacturer's agricultural-sensing device, upgrading Python 2.7 Lambda functions on AWS to a newer Python version. The vendor converted existing Lambda functions, ran tests, deployed to a development environment to resolve issues, and released the updates to production. The upgrade caused no interruptions for users, and the client retained Vates for ongoing maintenance.

Key Challenges

Upgrade Python 2.7 Lambda functions to a newer Python version
Ensure the device and users experienced no interruptions during and after the migration

Project Deliverables

Upgraded Python lambda functions
Tested code in a development environment
Released updated device software to the production/user-facing site

Project Solution

Vates converted the client's existing AWS Lambda Python 2.7 functions to a newer Python version, performed testing on their servers, deployed the code to a development environment to locate and fix issues, and then released the updated code to the user-facing production site. The client primarily worked with a senior software developer, an engineering manager, and a QA analyst during the engagement.

Project Outcome

No interruptions or delays for users
Resolved issues through testing and fixes
Client retained Vates for ongoing maintenance and is confident in product performance
