Ubuntu and AWS cloud used to capture, protect and monetise data across platforms

## Summary

Krux helps website operators responsibly drive new revenues from consumer data while protecting that data from unauthorised skimming and theft. With massive storage and processing requirements, and a rapidly growing customer base, the organisation decided to deploy an Ubuntu-based IT infrastructure on Amazon’s public cloud. Native integration of Ubuntu and Amazon supports seamless service provisioning and scaling. What’s more, the Ubuntu 10.04 LTS release provides enterprise-class stability; tools for fast, simple configuration and management; and constant availability for critical services.
