Scalable Infrastructure and Agile Development for a Financial Services No-Code Platform
Summary
To grow efficiently post-MVP, Finray needed scalable engineering capacity without straining its in-house team
Finray is a financial services company that provides a no-code platform designed to help financial institutions, including investment and commercial banks, streamline and automate operations such as data management, reconciliation, and reporting. Having successfully moved past the MVP stage, Finray faced the challenge of scaling efficiently while stabilizing the platform.
As the company expanded and onboarded new clients, the client needed to evolve the product by adding features tailored to specific client needs. However, Finray lacked sufficient in-house engineering capacity to maintain development velocity. The company brought in ELEKS as a partner capable of providing comprehensive technical expertise across development, DevOps, and data engineering.
Embedding end-to-end development, DevOps, and AWS infrastructure expertise into Finray's evolving product roadmap
The ELEKS team fully integrated into Finray's product development process, taking responsibility for end-to-end software development, including implementation, release management, and ongoing support. Our experts helped the client navigate a highly dynamic environment, frequently adapting to evolving business and technical needs. This change-driven development approach enabled Finray to respond quickly to market demands, with an adaptive team delivering results as efficiently as possible.
The ELEKS development team contributed to building critical platform capabilities, including a robust data warehouse, advanced business rules and controls, outcome-driven financial tools, and enhanced transparency through lineage and traceability features.
Additionally, Finray relied on our project management expertise to streamline development processes across geographically distributed teams and to enhance Agile practices, establishing greater predictability and transparency in delivery.
To ensure scalability and reliability, ELEKS leveraged AWS to deploy and manage test environments using Amazon EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service). We built a comprehensive SaaS solution within a dedicated AWS sub-account, ensuring full support, transparency, and control over all processes for Finray and their end clients.
Our team utilized a wide range of AWS services and related tools, including:
- Amazon EKS, EC2, ECR – for scalable application deployment, container orchestration, and secure image storage
- RDS, Snowflake – for reliable and scalable data storage and analytics
- IAM, AWS SSO, AWS Organizations – to manage secure access, user permissions, and multi-account governance
- CloudWatch, Route 53 – for monitoring, logging, and reliable DNS management
- Infrastructure as Code tools (Terraform, Helm) – to standardize and automate infrastructure provisioning and application deployment
These technologies helped streamline environment setup and infrastructure management, ensure faster and more consistent delivery, enhance system reliability, and maintain high levels of security and scalability.
Finray gained a stable, scalable platform and accelerated delivery through deep domain-driven engineering execution
The ELEKS team enabled Finray to achieve exceptionally high delivery speed and quality, driven by deep knowledge of the finance domain and understanding of the unique challenges facing financial institutions. Our feature-oriented development approach ensured that every increment delivered maximum business value to Finray and their clients.
Through robust AWS infrastructure and comprehensive DevOps practices, Finray gained a stable, scalable platform capable of supporting continued growth.
The breadth of knowledge and understanding that ELEKS has within its walls allows us to leverage that expertise to make superior deliverables for our customers. When you work with ELEKS, you are working with the top 1% of the aptitude and engineering excellence of the whole country.
Right from the start, we really liked ELEKS’ commitment and engagement. They came to us with their best people to try to understand our context, our business idea, and developed the first prototype with us. They were very professional and very customer oriented. I think, without ELEKS it probably would not have been possible to have such a successful product in such a short period of time.
ELEKS has been involved in the development of a number of our consumer-facing websites and mobile applications that allow our customers to easily track their shipments, get the information they need as well as stay in touch with us. We’ve appreciated the level of ELEKS’ expertise, responsiveness and attention to details.
