Summary

Globe, a leading telco in the Philippines, streamlined and optimized their non-production infrastructure provisioning by working with Stratpoint to deploy a managed Infrastructure Service Fulfillment team. Through the implementation of automation, standardized processes, and cost optimization strategies, Globe significantly improved efficiency and cost-effectiveness by reducing provisioning time by 85%.

Challenges

Globe’s infrastructure technology services were hindered by manual provisioning processes that took up to five hours per task. The lack of standardized procedures, coupled with inefficient tracking and lack of visibility to the change logs and history, caused delays, errors, and increased operational costs, hindering their ability to respond quickly to customer needs and innovate.

Solutions

Stratpoint deployed an Infrastructure Service Fulfillment team to perform industry best practices in process streamlining and optimization of Globe’s infrastructure provisioning process:

  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC) & CI/CD pipelines: Transition from manual (ClickOps) to automated DevOps provisioning process, reducing errors and saving time.
  • AWS expertise and scalability: Developed reusable pipelines and modules to standardize provisioning across projects.
  • Enablement and training: Equipped Globe’s engineers with skills to manage infrastructure independently, reducing reliance on support.
  • Cost optimization: Strategic implementation of Cloud computing expense reduction methods.
