Multi-Cloud Code Deployments using Amazon Q Developer with Echo3D

Overview

Founded in 2018, echo3D built a revolutionary 3D digital asset management (DAM) platform to address the surging demand for immersive content across industries. The company’s platform enables enterprises to seamlessly store, secure, optimize, and share 3D content, serving over 200,000 professionals across energy, healthcare, gaming, retail, and beyond.

echo3D’s platform has become the go-to solution for managing complex 3D assets at scale, supporting major enterprises across multiple sectors. With their technology operating within clients’ own AWS accounts, echo3D delivers critical infrastructure that powers real-time 3D content management for organizations worldwide.

As customer demand grew, echo3D faced increasing pressure to maintain rapid innovation while ensuring stable multi-cloud deployments. With a streamlined development team managing expanding cross-platform requirements, the company needed an efficient solution to accelerate their build and debug processes. This led them to explore Amazon Q Developer as a way to enhance their development capabilities and meet growing market demands.

Opportunity | Building for a Multi-Cloud Reality through Amazon Q Developer

echo3D specializes in 3D digital asset management, with a critical focus on multi-cloud deployments to serve their diverse enterprise client base. The company’s commitment to cross-platform functionality isn’t optional—it’s fundamental to their business model, with many clients specifically requiring AWS compatibility.

The company’s existing cloud infrastructure needed to support seamless migrations while maintaining robust performance across different environments. “For many of our clients, AWS is the ultimate destination,” explains Ben Pedazur, CTO at echo3D. “Amazon Q Developer has proven to be an indispensable guide for these migrations, both for our infrastructure and for the solutions we build for customers.”

After evaluating various solutions, echo3D identified Amazon Q Developer as their key tool for standardizing cross-platform development. “We needed a solution that could generate consistent code across different cloud environments while resolving platform-specific challenges,” notes Pedazur. This capability became particularly crucial during a recent customer migration project, which served as a perfect test case for Amazon Q Developer’s capabilities.

Solution | Streamlining the Journey to AWS with Amazon Q Developer

To streamline their cloud migration process, echo3D implemented Amazon Q Developer across their entire development workflow. The team utilized Amazon Q Developer to handle a critical migration from Azure Cosmos DB to Amazon DynamoDB, leveraging the AI assistant to generate comprehensive migration blueprints that included code modifications, configuration changes, and testing strategies.

Developers used detailed prompts to generate migration plans and receive context-aware guidance throughout the process. Amazon Q Developer provided not just code snippets, but complete architectural solutions that considered both the source and target platforms. During implementation, the team integrated Amazon Q Developer directly into their workflow, receiving real-time suggestions for code optimization and platform-specific adjustments.

The impact of Amazon Q Developer was immediate and measurable, with 41% of the new codebase being generated or auto-completed by the tool. “Amazon Q Developer has transformed our migration efficiency,” says Pedazur. “Our development time for cloud migrations has decreased by 87%, while significantly improving code quality.”

Amazon Q Developer assists throughout the entire development lifecycle, generating test cases, deployment scripts, and documentation. This comprehensive support has led to remarkable improvements: platform-specific bugs decreased by 75%, deployment success rates reached 99.8% across multiple clouds, and code review cycles shortened by 60%.

Beyond code generation, echo3D uses Amazon Q Developer to enhance team collaboration and knowledge sharing. The tool has cut onboarding time for new engineers in half, reducing it from four weeks to two weeks. Support tickets related to deployment errors have dropped by 68%, indicating improved code stability and reliability.

The new multi-cloud infrastructure, built with AWS services including DynamoDB, enables echo3D to scale efficiently while maintaining high performance across different cloud environments. The combination of Amazon Q Developer and AWS services has empowered echo3D to accelerate their development cycle while ensuring consistent quality across platforms.

“Amazon Q Developer isn’t just about coding faster—it’s about building better,” explains Pedazur. “We’ve seen improvements across every metric, from development speed to code quality, allowing our team to focus on innovation rather than troubleshooting.”

Outcome | Reimagining Development Through AI-Powered Workflows

With Amazon Q Developer, echo3D plans to further leverage Amazon Q Developer across their product lifecycle, from rapid prototyping to ongoing code maintenance and enhancement.

“Amazon Q Developer has revolutionized our approach to multi-cloud development,” says Pedazur. “It’s not just about automating tasks; it’s about reimagining our entire workflow. We’re now able to prototype, test, and deploy across cloud platforms with unprecedented speed and accuracy.”
