New Cloud Network

New Cloud Networks was slowed by VDI lag, blocked API calls inside corporate firewalls, and manual billing. We rebuilt the subscription system with a firewall-aware UI, wrapped third-party integrations in resilient middleware, and automated Pax8 billing. Support requests dropped, and reseller reassignments went from hours to minutes.

Technology Used:
  • Angular
  • Express
  • Node JS
  • Postgresql

About the Client

New Cloud Networks is a U.S.-based cloud infrastructure provider offering critical data protection services, including Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS), Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service (DRaaS), and Office 365 Backup. The platform targets resellers, MSPs, and IT administrators responsible for safeguarding enterprise data across hybrid and closed network environments. With a growing customer base and expanding portfolio, NCN needed a dynamic system to manage cloud service subscriptions, streamline role-based access, and automate billing operations—all while navigating VDI and firewall limitations.

Challenges

Performance or Efficiency Issues

  • VDI environments exhibited slow response times, impacting admin operations.
  • Real-time updates for subscription changes were delayed due to inefficient data flow.

Access/Security Gaps

  • Firewall restrictions in enterprise environments disrupted API calls and UI rendering.
  • Users struggled to access services inside closed or restricted networks.

Scalability or Maintainability Bottlenecks

  • Poor documentation and support for 3rd-party APIs created integration blind spots.
  • Role-based access was rigid and not optimized for reseller and guest user hierarchies.

Integration or Data Flow Issues

  • Lack of flexibility in subscription movement between partners (Partner A to Partner B).
  • Monthly billing data to third-party partner Pax8 was not dynamically configurable.

UI/UX or Workflow Limitations

  • Fragmented workflows between new vs. existing customer subscription logic.
  • Manual updates required for price or billing changes introduced risk of errors.
Gain Full Subscription Lifecycle Control

We deliver systems that manage, create, modify, suspend, and reassign tasks with complete traceability.

Solution

Challenge Solution Result
Firewall and access issues in closed network environments Developed a lightweight, firewall-tolerant UI architecture and ensured backend services supported proxy-based API calls and offline-safe caching. Consistent access for users in restricted corporate environments; reduced drop-offs and escalations.
Latency and inefficiencies in VDI systems Optimized frontend rendering using lazy loading, compressed asset delivery, and asynchronous API handling. ~30% faster load times in VDI environments, enabling smoother workflows for admins.
Unstable third-party API integrations Isolated external API interactions via middleware abstraction, implemented fallback logic, and created internal documentation for edge cases. Improved system resilience and faster troubleshooting; reduced third-party ticket volume by 40%.
Subscription movement between partners was manual and error-prone Built a dynamic partner mapping engine with a UI-driven interface to reassign customers from Partner A to Partner B. Reduced reassignment time from hours to minutes; audit logging ensured traceability.
Billing to Pax8 lacked flexibility Implemented a modular billing engine with customizable monthly reports pushed to Pax8 via secure APIs. Enabled automated, accurate billing across customer types; improved Pax8 reconciliation compliance.
