Intelenet Chooses Verizon Business to Host
Projects in the Cloud
Computing-as-a-Service Solution Enables Fast Solution Delivery to
Meet Business Goals
MUMBAI, India/PRNewswire/ -- When Intelenet Global Services
needed a secure, high-capacity computing environment for a
high-priority project, the company chose a cloud-based solution from
Verizon Business. The solution enabled Intelenet to cost-efficiently
scale up its technology infrastructure in just hours and to make key
applications available to the project team within just five days.
By leveraging Verizon's fully managed Computing-as-a-Service (CaaS)
solution, Intelenet was able to create a new computing environment
without the need to invest in dedicated hardware and software. In
addition, Verizon CaaS' pay-as-you-go model enabled Intelenet to align
project expenditures with revenues while benefiting from daily billing,
integrated security, automated provisioning and integrated storage and
backup services to support business continuity. Application availability
is backed by Verizon Business' stringent service-level agreements, and
the solution is provisioned through a Web-based user interface.
Intelenet provides contact-center, finance, accounting,
transaction-processing and consulting services to Fortune 500 companies
in the banking and financial services, health care, retail, insurance,
telecom, manufacturing, travel and hospitality industries. The
India-based company employs more than 32,000 employees at 35 locations
globally.
Intelenet was already a Verizon Business customer, using Verizon
Private IP to provide a secure, scalable and flexible global
communications network to connect its offices and customers around the
world. Verizon also hosts and manages the company's secure portal for
the exchange of information with clients, partners and vendors.
Verizon's world-class data center facilities offer a stable, secure and
reliable foundation for Intelenet's core application hosting
requirements and its ad-hoc business needs.
Rajendra Deshpande, chief technology officer, Intelenet Global
Services, said: "For companies such as ours, the ability to deliver
projects for our clients, quickly and cost-effectively, is a real
business differentiator. By building our project infrastructure in the
Verizon cloud, we estimate savings of about 35 percent versus building
the infrastructure ourselves, and were able to commence activity within
an incredibly short timeframe.
"Of course, the Verizon solution also addresses all our concerns
around issues such as security, scalability and flexibility. Alongside
our existing IT infrastructure, Verizon CaaS is a real enabler of
business agility."
