One such department, Global Road Safety – Services IGP, needed to implement an automation workflow utilizing Retool for their business requirements.

However, technical difficulties hindered the deployment on AWS, necessitating a comprehensive solution involving AWS CloudFormation, ALB SSO, ECS, and Retool knowledge.

  • Third-Party Communication: We communicated with Amazon’s third-party provider, coordinating and ensuring the solution was fully functional and aligned with Amazon’s requirements.

The Result

The new system has allowed Amazon’s Global Road Safety – Services IGP to use Retool efficiently for its business needs. The results include:
  • Timely Implementation: The comprehensive solution enabled Global Road Safety – Services IGP to implement Retool in time to meet its business requirements.
