AWS Case Study: USDA Food and Nutrition Service
Due to present economic challenges, more than 47 million people (most of them children) in the United States currently receive SNAP benefits each month. Many of these recipients are new to the program, so, in May, 2010, the FNS decided to create a dynamic Web application called the SNAP Retailer Locator. The application needed to be launched in 3 weeks, and Jonathan Benett, Program Manager, USDA FNS believed it was unlikely they would be able to access the required hardware in time. With limited budget and time, Jonathan selected the AWS Cloud to host the application. FNS was able to purchase services quickly through a pre-negotiated USDA Blanket Purchase Agreement with ESRI.
The mapping application helps SNAP recipients find the nearest SNAP authorized stores, including driving directions, and the website receives 30,000 visitors a month. Jonathan Alboum, CIO, USDA FNS, notes that their web application architecture incorporates an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) Large Windows On-demand Instance:
