OPTI gas station network has placed its information systems in the hybrid cloud ITGLOBAL.COM
MSP ITGLOBAL.COM built a hybrid cloud installation and took over the infrastructure of the OPTI gas station network for 24/7 support, including administration of all virtual machines up to the application level, network configuration and outsourcing of the first line of support for the gas stations themselves. The cooperation project also includes outsourcing of the second line of Service Desk and assistance in organizing DevOps processes of OPTI’s IT department.“OPTI is a partner of Gazprom Neft, a network of more than 150 gas stations. The management model of the gas station network is based on OPTI’s digital platform, which requires a high-performance, secure IT infrastructure and 24/7 technical support.
Olga Korabelnik, product owner, “IT platform for gas station network management” team:
“OPTI is a promising project. To optimize the team’s workload, we decided to outsource all routine tasks to the contractor ITGLOBAL.COM, who will be able to act as an IaaS provider, as well as take over administration and DevOps. We will be solely engaged in the development of our platform, without being distracted by solving problems not related to our application”.
Private cloud requirements
. In the ITGLOBAL.COM public cloud, the OPTI gas station network deployed dev and test environments to organize fast and high-quality development. A private cloud was chosen for prod, as OPTI has higher requirements to the security of key services.
Realization
. The first stage was the migration of more than 100 OPTI virtual machines totaling more than 20 TB to the ITGLOBAL.COM cloud. The project was realized at the end of 2019 in one day. Beforehand, ITGLOBAL.COM built an Enterprise-architecture with redundancy of servers, network equipment and storage. All of OPTI’s information security requirements have been met.
At the moment the project is in the active phase. In addition to the already implemented stages, ITGLOBAL.COM is diving deeper into the client’s processes, taking on more and more tasks and in parallel launching a pilot project as part of the Managed DevOps service.
