Tata Communications triumphs at Asian Technology Excellence Awards with InterGlobe Project

Their collaboration with InterGlobe Enterprises yields remarkable results, showcasing their prowess in cloud technology and IT transformation.

Tata Communications has emerged victorious at the esteemed Asian Technology Excellence Awards with the India Technology Excellence Award for Cloud - Airline, showcasing their prowess in the realm of cloud technology. Their journey with InterGlobe culminated in a remarkable achievement – an elevated customer experience that radiates triumph.

InterGlobe Enterprises, a global conglomerate with interests spanning aviation, hospitality, logistics, and more, faced the challenge of managing dispersed workloads across multiple data centres. This led to elevated costs, resource strain, and inefficiencies. To address these challenges, InterGlobe embarked on an IT transformation journey in 2019, seeking to consolidate workloads and enhance manageability, scalability, and security across its diverse portfolio.

After a meticulous evaluation of the market, InterGlobe chose to collaborate with Tata Communications, a decision that would prove pivotal in their transformative journey. By deploying Tata Communications' IZO™ Private Cloud and migrating workloads to their environment, InterGlobe witnessed a substantial reduction in legacy network architecture and a leaner IT team. This transition resulted in impressive cost savings of 25% to 30%.

In 2021, InterGlobe once again turned to Tata Communications, this time to enhance the performance of their joint venture with United Parcel Service (UPS) in the Indian logistics market. Tata Communications' expertise enabled InterGlobe to rapidly deploy a cloud-based architecture within three months, ensuring enhanced performance visibility, cost oversight, and improved productivity.

The partnership reached new heights in 2022, as Tata Communications supported InterGlobe's quest for maximum bandwidth efficiency and uptime. The implementation of a secure SD-WAN solution and additional analytics services demonstrated Tata Communications' commitment to delivering innovative solutions that optimise efficiency without compromising security or performance.

To realise the goal of borderless growth, Tata Communications collaborated closely with InterGlobe to formulate a unified strategy. This strategy encompassed a managed hosting environment across data centres, IZO™ Private Cloud migration with DR services, and the implementation of Tata Communications Managed Public Cloud Services for Azure. The outcome was a rapid digital transformation, with InterGlobe's entire digital estate migrating to the cloud within 24 months.

Furthermore, the unified strategy ensured an astounding 99.99% availability of infrastructure applications, accompanied by IZO™ SDWAN deployment across 30+ locations in India. Tata Communications not only optimised InterGlobe's workloads in a cost-efficient and manageable manner but also facilitated the establishment of a secure and interconnected future.

Tata Communications' victory at the Asian Technology Excellence Awards underscores their commitment to pushing the boundaries of technology, collaboration, and innovation. Through their partnership with InterGlobe, they have demonstrated that success is the outcome of working together towards a common goal.
