SaaS Discovery Program
Accelerate your SaaS solution with an architecture, detailed task list and expert advice for your biggest AWS questions. Exclusively for startups, 100% funded by AWS.
Think tomorrow. Build today.
Delivering an exceptional SaaS product is vital to driving business growth, but managing the underlying infrastructure is a big concern for most builders. The SaaS Discovery Program is designed by AWS to help startups plan and build on AWS with support from trusted partners like Loka.
We offer startups the substantial experience needed to build SaaS infrastructure reliably, securely and at scale, so businesses can focus on product development.
“Loka was instrumental in the very early days of Afresh, and has continued to be a trusted partner as we continue our journey."
How It Works
Our 2-4 week program results in architecture design, a breakdown of major tasks and proposed solutions.
Phase I: Discover
Loka will schedule a series of technical meetings to understand your architecture and use cases. We’ll discuss design options and offer guidance on the most effective and efficient SaaS architecture.
Phase II: Design
Loka will ideate precise SaaS architecture designs to match your needs. You’ll leave with architecture, clear recommendations on appropriate AWS services and an implementation roadmap.
Beyond Discovery
After receiving our recommendations, you can continue working with Loka to implement the proposal, drawing on financial support from AWS funding programs such as Jumpstart.
SaaS Use Cases
Accelerate delivery of your SaaS solutions. We can guide your through each phase of the SaaS journey.
Authentication & Identity Management
Protecting your SaaS applications and customer data is crucial. Loka has significant experience using services such as AWS Cognito and AWS IAM to manage user identities, control access to resources and ensure that sensitive data is encrypted and secure.
CI/CD Pipelines
Respond quicker to customer needs by delivering software updates faster and more reliably. Loka uses tools such as AWS CodePipeline, CodeBuild and CodeDeploy to automate building, testing and deployment, ensuring your software updates are delivered quickly and at the highest quality.
Database Multi-Tenancy
Allow customers to share a single database while maintaining isolation between their data. Using a combination of database- and application-level techniques (schema separation, row-level security), Loka can ensure each tenant’s data is solitary and secure.
Security
Security breaches can irrevocably damage the reputation and trust of a company. Loka has extensive expertise setting up access control and data governance to secure data, monitor for potential threats and protect against unauthorized access.
“We’re fortunate to recruit talent from the likes of Apple and Facebook. Loka’s team fit right into that mode of high performance. Loka is indispensable for us.”
