Application Roll Out Reduced from Weeks to Minutes
• VMware NSX Enables Better Agility, Flexibility and Security

Recently I had the opportunity to speak with the team at Schuberg Philis about their successful, production deployment of VMware NSX. As background, Schuberg Philis is an innovative business technology company and an important player in the field of mission critical outsourcing services. The company serves customers across financial services, retail suppliers and utilities, and therefore must comply with the highest international risk management and corporate governance standards, while remaining flexible to evolving customer needs.

The adoption of VMware NSX based network virtualization has transformed the way Schuberg Philis runs its IT. In order to provide 100 percent functional up time of its customers’ critical applications, Schuberg Philis continuously optimizes its infrastructure and processes. However, the company increasingly saw its network as a barrier to increasing business agility.

To solve this challenge and to accelerate application roll out, the Schuberg Philis implemented a software-defined data center environment, and deployed VMware NSX. Schuberg Philis is taking advantage of the VMware NSX platform’s flexibility, security and agility to accelerate the deployment of applications to customers. Schuberg Philis customers now have easy access to the flexibility of the cloud, but within a certified, auditable environment, which includes built in controls and security.

Funs Kessen, cloud architect at Schuberg Philis, explained, “The process for spinning up new applications for customers used to take weeks to complete. Now we can do it in a little more than 18 minutes. This allows our customers to respond more quickly to business requirements and opportunities.

By fully automating the process, Kessen and team can offer Schuberg Philis customers complete access to the flexibility of the cloud within a certified environment, complete with all controls and security built in, and we’ve made it fully auditable.”

The adoption of VMware NSX based network virtualization has transformed the way Schuberg Philis runs its IT.

Kessen noted, “With VMware NSX in our software-defined data center, we can focus on applications, and not on the infrastructure,”
