Microland, India's leading specialist IT Infrastructure and Cloud services provider serving customers across the world, is enabling enterprises globally, to adopt to the new IT services delivery paradigm.

The systems integration roots and pedigree in IT infrastructure management services enables Microland to leverage the knowledge of the IT infrastructure layer, operations workflows and the cloud solutions that are essential in the Hybrid IT services model.

A large global bank wanted to create a unified architecture for application development and production services in order to move to an "IT-as-a-Service" model leveraging cloud as a delivery model. However, the key challenges they faced were in leveraging existing investments in traditional IT infrastructure and ensuring that existing business workflows for provisioning the traditional IT infrastructure are automated in the new Hybrid IT world. Microland delivered key benefits to the customer through integration, customization and automation services. These include, Service Catalogue based, "Anything-as-a-Service (XaaS)" model: Examples being Database as a Service and Network as a Service. Agility for IT staff, another benefit enabled the client to provision development, test and production environments (and not just infrastructure) on the fly.

While the building blocks come from various channels such as the technology stack vendor, cloud service provider or traditional IT, Microland integrates, customizes and automates these blocks to create a tailor made solution for enterprises. Once the solution is in place, the company helps enterprises to operationalize and manage their hybrid IT environments.

Microland believes that each enterprise is unique and therefore should be the architect of their own hybrid IT journey. Hence, each solution the company builds for their client is unique and customized to address their business imperatives.

Today, the company has successfully enabled the transformation journey for some of the large global organizations who have adopted hybrid IT. In the clients' transformation journey to the hybrid IT world, Microland has always ensured that service assurance and governance are not compromised.
