Knovation turned to INetU to handle its infrastructure
needs: "We wanted to offload both hardware and
operating system software maintenance functions
because we consider them as enablers of business,
rather than part of our core business," said Ashwin Rao,
VP of engineering for Knovation, in a press release. "We
needed a partner who could take on the maintenance
of the infrastructure for us, so we could then focus on
our mission to create a paradigm shift in education."
Knovation runs a hybrid environment to allow for
scalability of resources based on demand. The INetU
Client Center allows the company to manage and view
all aspects of its environment in one portal, including
monitoring and security tools. Virtual machines can be
cloned and created on demand.
"Our INetU team was very methodical about each
interaction," said Rao. "The team provided complete
visibility into the project and ensured that our lines of
communication were streamlined for optimal
efficiency." He reported that the transition to INetU was
smooth, with no performance or downtime issues.
The integrated INetU team continues to work regularly
with Knovation to align on projects, collaborate on
correcting third-party technical updates and improve
the user experience.
