Ci&T Provides One of Brazil's Largest Independent Insurance Companies With Hybrid Cloud and On-Premise IT Environment for Electronic Sales System
Using the Google Platform, Ci&T to Help Improve Enterprise-Wide Sales Effectiveness
(firmenpresse) - KING OF PRUSSIA, PA -- (Marketwire) -- 06/27/12 -- , a Nearshore provider of value-driven web and mobile application services and software product engineering, announced today that it was chosen by one of Brazil's largest independent insurance companies to migrate its electronic sales system to the cloud. Using the Google Platform, Ci&T created a hybrid on-premise and cloud architecture that will reduce service outages, shorten the sales cycle and improve sales effectiveness across the enterprise.
The Company charged its IT team to move its electronic sales system to a more reliable web platform. Feeling the effects of outages and downtimes, which led to revenue loss and compromised customer relationships, the Company was looking to minimize those occurrences while promoting sales effectiveness in the process. The IT team realized the new platform would have to be a hybrid environment -- mixing both on-premise and cloud architectures. The Company looked for a partner to lead the integration so that its internal IT team could be freed up to focus on other bottom-line, revenue-generating activities.
The Company turned to Ci&T due to its industry-leading reputation for high-quality offerings. With more than 40 full-time employees working in five high-performance teams, Ci&T used a 100-percent and Lean approach to provide the Company with a next-generation sales system that was accessible both on-premise and in the cloud. Unique features of the project include:
The Company wanted an architecture that was highly reliable and scalable, which would help reduce outages and grow along with the business. Ci&T often employs the Google Platform in enterprise projects because of its high availability and developer-friendly features that allow it to move forward with migrations quickly and with little IT changes.
Ci&T created a hybrid environment for the Company, with some applications running in the cloud and others running on-premise. The on-site and cloud-based applications consistently synch with each other -- and data that starts in the cloud can move to the mainframe and vice versa.
Ci&T proved that major enterprises can have cloud or hybrid solutions without having to make major changes to their IT strategies. Taking advantage of the cloud, while keeping their own infrastructure and on-premise systems, is possible.
"Ci&T is one of the first companies to see the value of the Google Platform in the enterprise -- its reliability, scalability and availability are second to none," said Daniel Viveiros, Cloud Computing Services Manager, Ci&T. "We provided this company with a next-generation sales system quickly and with little disruption to the business -- all while reducing infrastructure cost, increasing scalability and promoting business agility. This is one of the best use cases for Google App Engine in the enterprise in the world."
Since working with Ci&T, the Company has seen a drop in service outages and disruptions and an improvement in sales effectiveness, which will continue as the rollout progresses. In addition, by leveraging the cloud in a hybrid environment, it will also been able to significantly save time, money and resources that would have otherwise gone toward hardware and software upgrades. The Company's IT team will not have to spend time maintaining the new infrastructure, which will allow it to focus on bringing other technological innovations on board -- helping the company differentiate itself in a competitive market.
