CUSTOMERS / NATIONAL GROCERY RETAILER
Modernizing at identity quickly, at scale
“Without Strata, we would have spent thousands of hours redeveloping and reconfiguring applications.”
— Manager of Cloud Information Security
Building a custom identity fabric allowed this enterprise retailer to move non-standard apps that had been hard-coded to a legacy IDP — all while improving their security posture. It also allowed for easily adding additional identity services without rewriting code.
No app refactoring
Migrated 200 apps without rewriting or interrupting their user experience.
No time consuming, expensive migration projects
Saved millions in custom coding, manual testing, and validation.
No legacy vendor lock-ins
Retired legacy identity software plus the supporting infrastructure and reduced tech debt.
THE CHALLENGE
Modernize 200 mission-critical apps and retire legacy identity provider for good
The grocery retailer’s cloud security team had an identity problem: Its legacy identity provider (IDP) was nearing its end of life and had to be replaced. This was easier said than done.
The team faced a lengthy migration from an on-premises single sign-on (SSO) IDP to Microsoft’s Azure Active Directory. The conservative estimate for the project was many years and millions of dollars.
“The experience was great from our initial meeting. The conversation and the responses were exactly what we were looking for.”
THE SOLUTION
Deploy Maverics Identity Orchestration Platform to modernize in a fraction of the time without refactoring
The grocery retailer chain didn’t have much time before a critical renewal deadline of the old IDP. Without the migration, they’d have to abandon many of their older, but mission-critical in-house built and non-standard applications.
The needed a smart solution that could help them migrate without refactoring. They worked with Strata to build out both non-production and productionalized instances of the solution.
“We were looking for a solution that would help us modernize while staying flexible enough to handle the scale of our infrastructure. We needed a real partner to help us understand what we needed to do to reach our goal. We got both with Strata.”
THE OUTCOME
200+ modernized applications without refactoring or abandoning any
Strata’s incremental approach delivered a seamless migration that exceeded all expectations. Moving apps off their on-premises solution suddenly became simple — what would have taken months for a single app was completed in hours.
- Scaled Maverics horizontally
making it highly available, resilient, and seamlessly integrated into the CI/CD pipeline. - Accelerated the completion date of the app migration by several years
allowing the company to focus valuable time and resources on future business innovation. - Shut down the legacy identity services stack
that was keeping vital applications stuck in the past.
“I highly recommend other enterprises interested in modernizing applications while increasing their security posture to talk with Strata. Having a foundation based on industry standards and protocols keeps things simpler and moves us toward the future.”
