We’re excited to share that we’ve reached a major milestone: the completion of the first phase of our Bolt+ infrastructure migration.
We’ve transitioned our infrastructure to new service providers, a strategic move that required our sites to undergo scheduled maintenance. This migration marks a significant moment for both our platform and business.
Here’s why:
1. Cost Optimisation – Our migration delivers significant cost efficiency while supporting our expansion plans. By transitioning away from our previous provider’s opaque and escalating fee structure, we’ve created a more sustainable model that benefits our community and shareholders. With more transparent usage-billing information, our management team can make strategic decisions to optimise financial performance.
2. Infrastructure Diversification – Our infrastructure now operates across multiple global service providers, ensuring the elimination of single-provider vulnerability, redundant backup systems across different locations, improved disaster recovery capabilities and higher Bolt+ uptime. This distributed approach reduces operational risk while enhancing the reliability of Bolt+.
3. Set-up for Growth – We’ve carefully selected providers who share our vision for success. These new services offer dedicated support teams, proactive growth planning, scalable solutions that evolve with our needs and a collaborative approach to problem-solving. These relationships give us the expertise and support needed to grow with confidence.
4. Future Ready – Our new providers offer the scalable foundation needed to support our growth trajectory. This strategic upgrade positions us to: handle platform demands, support user base expansion, enable seamless deployment of features, and accommodate traffic. With these improvements, we are well-equipped to execute our aggressive expansion plans for 2025 and beyond.
