- Result
- More than 23m users by October 2025
What went wrong. Holding so many documents in one app concentrates risk; resilience depended on moving the registries behind it to the cloud.
The lesson. An app is only as resilient as the registries behind it; plan their continuity first.

LiveCloud migration
2022
An emergency move of state registries abroad and into the cloud after Russia's full-scale invasion.
- Cost

- Time to launch
- Began within days of the invasion
- Team
- Not published
- Result
- About 10m GB of data moved, covering 27 ministries
What went wrong. The law had required government data to stay on servers inside Ukraine; it was changed a week before the invasion.
The lesson. Remove legal barriers to moving data abroad before a crisis, not during one.
