NTT Ltd., the global technology services provider, has implemented its Cloud Management Platform to streamline Hash Code Book’s (HCB) multi-cloud environment.
HCB is a company that provides dedicated IT outsourcing services in blockchain, cryptocurrency and co-system development. With customers in Hong Kong, China, Korea, and Malaysia, their workload is scattered across Asia and several cloud service providers, which can present a fragmented workflow.
Challenged by stretched resources and inability to gain insight on consumption of workloads, rightsizing resources and optimizing spending, HCB was motivated to simplify its IT Management and improve performance and quality of service. In response, NTT conducted an assessment of HCB’s existing IT infrastructure and deployed a Cloud Management Platform designed to provide efficient control and management of cloud services from various hyperscale cloud providers into a single platform.
This enabled HCB to discover and visualize all cloud assets through a customizable dashboard view with key performance metrics such as status, usage, and cost information gathered from the various cloud solutions. Supported by a robust dashboard, HCB can conveniently monitor all workloads, including the total spend every month, cumulatively and by project in one overview for quicker decision making and optimization. The dashboard also reveals insights needed for effective strategic planning and governance.
Following the successful deployment of the CMP, HCB has witnessed significant improvements in operational efficiency and service level quality that has also benefited its customers. Additionally, they can now utilize spare resources to drive innovation and stay agile when responding to market changes.
“As an IT outsourcing services company with customers across Asia, many of our applications and solutions were running on different cloud platforms. We realized an integrated environment is critical to help us stay competitive and drive sustainable economic growth with reduced risk. NTT understood our challenges and recommended the best solution to address them while also laying the foundation for us to capitalize on future opportunities,” said Victor Seow, Chief Information Officer, Hash Code Book Sdn. Bhd.
“Most organizations leverage between 3 to 5 clouds on average, and that comes with the complexity of managing these multiple platforms. By choosing to work with the right technology partner like NTT, businesses can concentrate on what they do best, and leave the complexity of technology in our hands. We take pride in our ability to drive business agility through intelligent technology solutions and to ensure HCB is always future-ready,” said Henrick Choo, CEO, NTT Ltd. Malaysia.
