EmployWise adopts IBM's SmartCloud Enterprise
IBM has announced that EmployWise will deliver its services on a cloud computing infrastructure using the IBM SmartCloud Enterprise Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) offering. This agreement will help EmployWise have better focus on continued innovation and rapid on-demand expansion, while IBM manages the back-end operations like installing, upgrading and maintaining the company's valuable high-end infrastructure.
"Using the IBM SmartCloud Enterprise pay-as-you-go IaaS model, EmployWise will be able to develop and test their applications much faster via automation and rapid provisioning to create the required competitive edge. This next-generation IT consumption model based on IBM's leading cloud computing technology and services will help position EmployWise a league ahead of their competition,"said G. Dharanibalan, Vice-President, Offerings Management & Development, Global Technology Services, IBM, India/South Asia.
"This move not only significantly raises the scalability of EmployWise but also gives our customers a higher level of reliability and the comfort of knowing their data is secure in an IBM facility. We were looking for a partner who could give us access to on-demand provisioning capability to meet the scalibility demands of our growing business. On the IBM SmartCloud Enterprise, computing infrastructure is provisioned in a matter of minutes as compared to weeks or months on a traditional infrastructure setup. This has not only helped us deploy new features faster but also scale up the infrastructure rapidly as required - enabling faster time to market. Moreover, we are now able to focus on growing the business at an unprecedented pace without having to worry about the associated computing infrastructure investments,' said Sumeet Kapur, Founder & CEO, EmployWise.
As a winner of the IBM Beacon Award 2008 for SaaS innovation, EmployWise uses eight key modules that cover the entire employee life-cycle from recruitment to retirement. The company's customers represent a range of industry verticals with an employee base that range from 10s to 1,000s.
