The challenge
Urgent need for data center expansion
since their data centers maxed out. Limited
private data center expenditure going
forward
The solution
VMware Cloud on AWS helped them
burst quickly and also migrate
350 VMs in 3 days. Professional
services through partner
Business outcome
Maintain same environment and
infrastructure with minimal complexity.
Curbed capex expenditure – increased
agility
