Flexibility and high-security result in lower costs and less risk

STRATandGO™ required a scalable and agile infrastructure to securely and efficiently distribute their new solution. This is why they explored

IBM’s SmartCloud Enterprise. Since it is designed to provide rapid access to security-rich cloud environments and it is also developed for organizations that want a cloud environment suitable for running moderate-risk applications, it will finally lead to cost effectiveness and risk reduction of the client’s IT.

IBM delivered IBM SmartCloud Enterprise, which implicates putting the

STRATandGO™ tool in the IBM Cloud. Thus, STRATandGO™ can leverage IBM SmartCloud Application Services to develop and customize solutions for their end customers and deliver them in a Software-as-a-Service

(SaaS) model. There are important components of a SaaS cloud environment: load balancing support, 3-tier software architecture, high scalability capabilities, MTTR (Mean time to Recovery from loss of Resource) and many more. Additionally, by using SaaS, no installation on customers IT equipment is needed. This makes the combination of STRATandGO™ together with the newest technology of IBM SmartCloud a best in class solution for customers.

IBM SmartCloud Enterprise is part of IBM’s broad SmartCloud framework, which consists of a family of enterprise-class cloud computing technologies and services for securely building and using private, public and hybrid clouds. STRATandGO™ is perfectly suited to run in the cloud environment. Using SmartCloud Enterprise capabilities allows STRATand-

GO™ to finally offer their software solution to their end customers around the globe.
