Success stories
Delivered by: SORINTians
A Prominent Italian Development Bank
Implementation of Azure Virtual Desktop
1) Challenge
Migrating towards a VPN-less solution by adapting an Azure Virtual Desktop solution.
- Design and implement.
2) Goind forward
Analysing and understanding client’s needs, environment,
and challenges.
3) Accepting the challenge – Solution and Implementation
A proposal was drafted and approved by the client. Covering:
- Areas of improvements. E.g., security and performance.
- Phases of carrying out the project’s implementation.
- Matrix protocol using Synapse.
- A design based on the principle of zero-trust. E.g. approach to protect sensitive data from internal & external threats.
- Effective implementation plan utilizing all in-hands resources.
- Along with all the business and technical take aways.
Result & delivery
- Implementation went 100% according to proposal and time frame.
- The solution offered a more convenient cost to client.
- Ease-of-use. Less complex component to manage.
- Highly scalable. Users & resources usages.
- AVD advantages likes identity management, backups, database security, etc..
- Submitted a post activity report.
Metal Manufacturing Industry
From Private to Public Cloud. Estimating using FinOps Methodologies.
1) Challenge
Client came with a clear objectives but without an in-hand solution. Objectives include:
- Reduce and optimize cost.
- While, improving scalability, agility/performance.
- Client’s environment is currently managed by Sorint (sircle NGMS).
- Entire infrastructure is on a private cloud.
- Tight deadlines due to private cloud contract expiration.
2) Goind forward
In-dept of specifics needs and requirements. A series of meetings with client’s team, sircle NGMS, & at later stages sircle Microsoft and Azure.
3) Accepting the challenge – Solution and Implementation
A conclusion that the legacy infrastructure will no longer meeting expectations. Sorint offered an alternative proposal that included.
- Migrating to a public cloud. Microsoft Azure.
- Architecting a parallel environment to avoid potentials errors and provide intensive testing activities before the new environment is switched into production.
- Client’s environment is currently managed by Sorint (sircle NGMS).
- An estimated future costs by applying FinOps methodologies. In collaboration with sircle FinOps.
Result & delivery
- A smooth migration within the specified timelines.
- Validating and testing activities. No rollbacks or any significant changes.
- 25% cost saving due to the new solution.
- Reduced IT team’s workload and allowed more visibility and control of cost.
- Along with various added values.
- Submitted a post activity report.
Healthcare Industry
Design & Implement a Hybrid Infrastructure
1) Challenge
Introduce cloud native technologies:
- Well-structured and effective strategy for migrating to the cloud.
- Scalable architecture. Could support new needs. In relation to CRM/ERP applications that integrates services such as Azure Data Factory, Data Bricks, and Dynamics.
- Improve operational efficiency, increase flexibility, and enhance security.
- Best practice and detailed documentation of all activities.
2) Goind forward
In-depth assessment to identify priorities, constrains, needs , and opportunities.
3) Accepting the challenge – Solution and Implementation
- An architecture that outlines the best practices and guidelines for implementing and managing the cloud resources.
- Designed a network topology in compliance with Cloud Adoption Framework.
- Hub and Spoke network architecture approach to act as an aggregation point for all resources.
- A well-defined naming convention for all resources.
- Multi-subscription approach with landing zone and management group for cost optimization and better separation of environments, identity management, network and other resources
Result & delivery
- A clear hierarchical organizational structure which improves governance and simplifies managing the operations.
- Complied with best practices. Following CAF.
- Customization to meet security and customer’s internal regulation requirements.
- IP addressing planning to manage and scale the network.
- Domain controllers implemented as windows server core.
- VPN gateway in the Hub to connect on-prem location.
- Privileged Identity Management. e.g. of the security measures.
- A reference architecture. Submitted a post activity report & documentation.
