DesktopWorkspace Case Study - Energy Retailer
End-User Compute Stabilized and Uplifted
Worldwide energy distribution and retailer, driving over 6B in annual revenues, with 30,000 employees worldwide and 2000 employees in Australia.
Customer Challenge
- The distributed applications supporting remote and core sites was deeply in need of modernization and upgrade.
- Due to a large number of remote sites and users, supporting user application and data services became problematic.
- In addition to an aging hardware fleet, several core applications were running on unsupported operating systems and presented continual availability challenges.
The Solution:
- GlassHouse provided full lifecycle workspace modernization services including desktop virtualization high level design, detailed design and implementation planning plan, technology deployment, user services rollout for virtual desktop services country-wide.
- The core Citrix technology solution included a hybrid solution of application and desktop virtualization technologies.
- In addition to consolidated compute infrastructure deployments, a new network load balancing and application firewall solution was designed and integrated with the existing customer network environment.
- The remote site infrastructure transitioned from a traditional ‘fat-client’ workspace model to a thin-client model with remote application services delivery.
- The result of the project allowed lower cost workspace services, with increased agility and time to delivery, with robust improvements to support and security.
- In addition the tier-1 outsourcer’s time to deliver new workspace services was significantly reduced.
