Enspire chooses Logicalis to install Vblock for
business growth and customer innovation
Enspire Australia, an integrator, ISP and cloud computing
specialist, is Australia’s first Cloud Service Provider to offer
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)
using a Vblock implemented by Logicalis.
Challenge
A pioneer of cloud computing since August 2006, Enspire
undertook a strategic re-engineering process in 2009 which involved
a bold evaluation of the company’s future. The resulting five-year
strategy included the provision of hosted desktop services, which
required infrastructure that was able to scale from an initial
1,000 users to the ultimate goal of hosting 10,000 users by June
2012..
Solution
Enspire chose Vblock to support its business strategy, which
focussed on scalability, agility, service excellence, high
availability and reduced cost. Logicalis was engaged to
roll-out the Vblock infrastructure platform, which integrates
solutions from EMC, Cisco and VMware.
Benefits
Enspire was able to reduce infrastructure and application
delivery times from ten weeks to two weeks. It also reduced support
and operational costs, and delivered greater robustness, with zero
unscheduled down time since the implementation.
Testimonial
"The Logicalis project team made an ambitious project painless, through its in-depth product knowledge and adherence to process. This gives us a cutting edge in delivering superior service delivery to our customers."
