TDR Transportes Drives Growth Through a Strategic Migration to AWS

With 35 years of experience in the logistics and transportation industry, TDR Transportes faced the challenge of modernizing critical business applications running on on-premises infrastructure. Together with Compucloud and AWS, the company migrated its legacy workloads to a more scalable, secure, and efficient architecture, improving operational performance and preparing to sustain its rapid growth.

The Challenge: Rapid Growth with Limited Infrastructure

TDR Transportes has built a strong reputation in Mexico by providing comprehensive national and international transportation services, specializing in general freight, specialized cargo, and hazardous materials. As the company continued to grow, it began to encounter significant technological limitations.

Critical business applications were running on local (on-premises) infrastructure, creating challenges such as:

• Limited scalability to support new business requirements.

• Slow and inconsistent performance in key applications.

• Dependence on physical infrastructure and associated operational risks.

• Lengthy processes for expanding technological capacity.

• Complexity in maintaining operational continuity and availability.

The increase in users, transactions, and operational demands made it clear that the company needed to evolve toward a more flexible and modern platform.

The Solution: Migrating to the AWS Cloud

To address these challenges, TDR Transportes partnered with Compucloud to develop an AWS migration strategy focused on maintaining operational continuity while minimizing risks to critical legacy applications.

The solution included a combination of approaches:

• Lift-and-shift migration to accelerate the transition.

• Greenfield deployments to modernize specific components.

• Infrastructure standardization and automation using Terraform.

AWS Services Implemented

To modernize its infrastructure and strengthen operational continuity, TDR Transportes migrated its workloads to AWS. The transition was carried out using AWS Application Migration Service (MGN), while Amazon EC2 provided a scalable platform for critical business applications. Secure connectivity was established through AWS Site-to-Site VPN, data protection was enhanced with AWS Backup, and centralized management was enabled through AWS Systems Manager.

In addition, Amazon CloudWatch provided real-time monitoring of the environment, complemented by services such as Amazon EBS, Amazon S3, AWS IAM, AWS KMS, and AWS CloudTrail, which strengthened the platform’s storage, security, and governance capabilities.

Results and Benefits Achieved

The migration enabled TDR Transportes to modernize its technology operations and strengthen its capacity for growth.

Key Benefits

• Greater scalability to respond quickly to new business demands.

• Improved performance and stability of critical applications.

• Reduced operational limitations associated with the on-premises model.

• More efficient and standardized infrastructure management.

• Enhanced security and data protection.

• Faster and more controlled recovery of services and databases.

• Greater visibility and proactive monitoring of operations.

Thanks to the elasticity of the AWS Cloud, TDR can now expand its technological capacity without relying on lengthy hardware procurement cycles or physical infrastructure expansions.

Business Impact

The technology transformation enabled TDR Transportes to focus on innovation and business growth while maintaining more agile, resilient, and future-ready operations.

Today, the company operates on a modern platform capable of supporting its ongoing expansion and enabling new digital initiatives with greater speed and efficiency.

The Value of Compucloud’s Guidance

Compucloud’s expertise and support were instrumental in ensuring a secure, well-structured migration aligned with AWS best practices.

Through a strategy focused on operational continuity, automation, and gradual modernization, Compucloud helped TDR Transportes reduce risks and accelerate its cloud adoption journey, enabling technology to become a true driver of business growth.
