IBM helped a leading financial enterprise in Europe expedite

application development and time to market with a private modular
cloud solution.

Business objective What IBM did Results

To optimize operations and
remain competitive, the financial
enterprise sought a private
cloud outsourcing solution that
would provide the scalability and
flexibility to rapidly provision
standardized, virtual servers and
support the activities of its more
than 1,000 in-house operations
and new product application
developers.
The IBM Strategic Outsourcing and
IBM Integrated Technology
Services (ITS) teams built a
platform-as-a-service (PaaS)
private cloud environment with an
automated self-service portal within
19 days. The portal provides the
company’s application developers
the capability to find new server
resources within an hour. We
provided an improved platform for
new product development, test and
deployment.
 Established a PaaS, private
cloud environment more
quickly
 Helped reduce risk and
human error using automated
servers that shortened the
deployment time from 6
weeks to within 26 minutes
 Helped expedite new
product and service time to
market, thus expanding new
business opportunities and
operations efficiencies

Solution: IBM Private Modular Cloud, IBM Strategic Outsourcing, IBM Integrated Technology Services
Industry: Banking | Location: Northern Europe
Profile: A leading financial enterprise in Northern Europe | Size: More than five million retail customers
