Singlife cuts costs by $4m yearly with AWS integration

At least 70% of its staff earned at least one AWS certification.

Singapore-based Singlife said it finished its cloud migration by moving more than 90% of its computational processes to the cloud with Amazon Web Services (AWS).

The insurer said it is the first insurer in the country to be fully on the cloud, cutting expenses by $3.7m (S$5m) per year.

Through this shift, the insurer aims to better anticipate customer needs to generate future financial products and experiences.

“Singlife uses Amazon Relational Database Service, Amazon Aurora (AWS’s fully managed MySQL and PostgreSQL-compatible relational database built for the cloud) to develop and bring new products to market quicker,” the company said in a press release.

Singlife said over 70% of its workforce and technical leaders are equipped with at least one AWS certification.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
