    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.

    Cloud migration

    2022

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

      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.
