How to maintain a strong relationship between the brand and the customer? Offer a quality product, the maximum amount of useful information about it and reliable support. And cloud technologies will always help to achieve this.

“Panasonic Ukraine Ltd.” LLC is part of the Japanese Panasonic Corporation, one of the world's leading companies in the production of electronic devices. Its subsidiaries, factories, stores and offices operate in Europe, Asia and America. It has been operating in Ukraine since 1996.

Task

Panasonic Ukraine has a website that presents products for business: telecommunications equipment, office equipment, security systems, power supplies, etc. The company's specialists help customers choose the necessary equipment, configure and support it in the future. The company also has a service support website.

Historically, Panasonic Ukraine kept its entire IT infrastructure on its own local servers. But when the company decided to update both sites, it turned out that the functionality of the local server did not meet the new requirements for the operation of web resources: reliability, fault tolerance and 24/7 availability. The company realized that IaaS based on the VMware platform would be the best solution for their deployment.

Solution

Panasonic Ukraine successfully uses the services of the GigaTrans telecom operator, so they quickly decided on a cloud operator. GigaCloud together with GigaTrans are part of the GIGAGROUP group of companies.

GigaCloud provided public cloud infrastructure on VMware. The technical support of the operator provided all the necessary assistance to the specialists of Panasonic Ukraine Ltd to deploy the updated sites in the cloud.

Result

Currently Panasonic Ukraine sites work in the GigaCloud cloud. Among the advantages of migration, the company highlights the following:

• flexible change in the amount of computing resources both in the larger and smaller direction;
• fault tolerance;
• more efficient distribution of time and tasks of the IT department;
• round-the-clock technical support from GigaCloud specialists.

"We have just begun our immersion in the world of cloud technologies," says a representative of the IT department of Panasonic Ukraine. Migration to the cloud is a global strategy of our company, we plan to gradually transfer all our IT services to the cloud infrastructure. It's a good way to focus on development tasks."
