Unlocking the Potential of Digital Libraries: A Cloud Migration Success Story with Esan

ESAN - National Electronic Library is a valuable resource system with a vast collection of full-text articles that includes journals, dissertations, newspapers, books, and scientific works. But, their previous on-premise infrastructure was unable to handle more than 500 concurrent requests, and the capacity to digitize 130 million pages was limited. ESAN serves over 15 universities and 30 institutions, catering to a student population of over 10,000 users. It was clear that the current infrastructure failed to meet the demands.

To provide a reliable and scalable service, ESAN chose to migrate their resources and services to the cloud with the help of our software development and consulting company. By doing so, ESAN was able to optimize their resources and provide enhanced services while reducing operational costs and improving overall performance. Our cloud migration solution efficiently handled the growing number of concurrent users while accommodating the extensive library resources and services.

By successfully implementing cloud technology, ESAN overcame their infrastructure limitations and enhanced their service capabilities. ESAN is now able to process over 2,000 concurrent requests, making their resources and services accessible to more users efficiently. Scaling up with the cloud migration solution also allowed ESAN to expand their digital library's capacity to digitize up to 500 million pages, well beyond their initial target. ESAN's cloud migration success story is an example of how technology can transform libraries and provide better access to knowledge resources, and we are proud to be part of their journey.
