The Challenge
As a global leader in providing SaaS-delivered business applications to the architectural, engineering and construction (AEC) community, BIW Technologies needs to ensure that it can deliver highly available, cost-effective, scalable and secure solutions to its growing global client base.
The Solution
With varying client usage demands, large amounts of data, an expanding geographical client base and the requirement for proven disaster recovery capabilities, BIW Technologies decided to implement an IT infrastructure as a service solution using Attenda's Cloud computing platform, for the management of its business critical SaaS application. The solution provides BIW with a five year fixed cost for its infrastructure operation, with the ability to scale rapidly. It also includes a separate platform hosted on America's east coast, to provide North American clients with greater legal protection for their data.
Business benefits
- Rapid scalability, eliminating the need for over-provisioning
- Access to technology skills on demand
- Operational confidence with 24 x 7 support service
- Pro-active monitoring and management of the application
- Reduced deployment times for new clients.
Client comment
"As a market leading ISV, our focus is on developing world-class applications that meet the needs of the AEC community. By partnering with Attenda we can stay focused, whilst they ensure our SaaS application is available, scalable and secure for all of our clients."
