As a leading provider of cutting-edge IT solutions, we at Manifold Computers Limited are excited to share another ongoing case study that showcases our expertise in transforming IT infrastructures. This partnership with a multimillion-dollar international oil and gas company demonstrates our commitment to delivering scalable, efficient, and resilient solutions that drive business growth and success.
The Challenge
Our client, a sprawling organization operating across diverse geographic locations, relies heavily on critical business applications to maintain its operations. However, the company’s aging IT infrastructure is nearing the end of its refresh cycle, posing significant challenges such as escalating maintenance costs and the need for substantial capital investments for upgrades. To address these issues and lay the foundation for seamless expansion, the multimillion-dollar company has launched the FlexPod project.
Our Solution
As a Cisco Gold Certified partner, Manifold Computers Limited has been entrusted with the deployment of the FlexPod Data Center architecture. This cutting-edge solution seamlessly integrates Cisco UCS technology with NetApp storage, offering a flexible and efficient computing, networking, and storage environment. By consolidating these resources, we aim to help the multimillion-dollar company achieve its primary objectives of enhancing scalability, reducing recovery times, improving performance, and streamlining system administration.
Project Phases and Progress
The FlexPod project is divided into three crucial phases:
- Build & Upgrade: We are currently working on the physical installation of equipment, cabling, and software upgrades to ensure a solid foundation for the new infrastructure.
- Configuration: Once the build and upgrade phase is complete, we will tailor Cisco UCS, Nexus, MDS, NetApp storage, VMware ESXi, and VCenter according to the agreed-upon design. This customization will enable the infrastructure to meet the specific needs of the multimillion-dollar company.
- Testing: To ensure seamless operation, we will execute comprehensive connectivity, server, and VMware migration tests. This rigorous testing process will validate the infrastructure’s performance and identify any potential issues before going live.
During the project, we work closely with key stakeholders, including OEMs such as Cisco, NetApp, and VMware, as well as the project team and implementation partners. Our success is measured by our ability to meet specific requirements, improve performance, increase efficiency, and align with the business objectives of the multimillion-dollar company.
