VVL Systems & Consulting is a premier consulting company that primarily
serves the U.S. intelligence community. The company focuses on
delivering agile data centers by leveraging cloud computing, automation
and orchestration.
With roughly 25 percent of the U.S. Government’s IT budget committed to
cloud computing migration,1 the company needed a powerful cloud
management solution to meet its clients’ rapidly evolving needs.
VVL Systems selected the BMC
Cloud Management solution from BMC Software (NASDAQ: BMC)
because it enabled the company to meet client requirements that would
otherwise have been extremely difficult, or even impossible. Equally
important, it dramatically sped up time-to-value for clients.
“The BMC Cloud Management solution allows us to adhere very closely to
our customers’ requirements,” said Vinnie Lima, managing director at VVL
Systems. “In the past, we were limited by the available technology –
today we are not.”
Lima added, “BMC allows us to meet these requirements much more
effectively than other cloud management offerings. BMC Cloud Management
solution not only delivers a greater operational capability, but also
allows us to focus more on meeting the customers’ requirements versus
worrying about the limits of technology.”
The Challenge
The company needed to quickly and efficiently implement cloud solutions
that met clients’ needs as well as strict Defense Information System
Agency (DISA) accreditation requirements. This goal required a high
degree of process automation, particularly in relation to DISA
compliance.
The Solution
The company chose the BMC Cloud Management solution, which not only sped
solution delivery but automated the implementation of many key
requirements on the accreditation check list. VVL Systems offers, in
conjunction with cloud implementations, access to BMC Education
Services, to ensure users and administrators of the cloud are ready to
take full advantage of the new platform.
Benefits
By implementing the BMC Cloud Management solution, VVL Systems has
experienced a number of benefits, including:
-
Faster time-to-value
-
Faster provisioning of compute resources for clients, from roughly six
weeks to under one hour
-
Capacity-aware service placement, for higher service quality
-
Accelerated approval processes for clients
-
Enhanced ability to efficiently meet complex government accreditation
requirements
