Customer use case
 

Customer Challenge
A U.S. insurance provider was in the process of moving their operations to cloud to increase speed and agility. They had moved a handful of applications with the support of ecosystem partners, but needed help moving mission-critical applications, like Guidewire, which presented data privacy and security challenges. The insurer needed to find the right fit-for-purpose platform that could deliver the performance required to complete the move of data-heavy applications.

 

How Kyndryl helped
Kyndryl led the infrastructure design and delivery of a private cloud solution on a managed Oracle RAC database with the custom configurations needed to support the insurer's robust Guidewire implementation. The fit-for-purpose cloud solution incorporated data security and processing capabilities with as-a-service subscription pricing that was unmatched by other cloud providers. As part of Kyndryl's continued management of the platform, they provided significant security and performance tuning to compliment the insurer's internal team.

 

Outcomes achieved

  • Increased agility enables insurer to bring new products and services to their customers faster
  • Automation provided in the cloud has improved security and performance, while lowering costs
  • Provides the highest level of reliability and resiliency to ensure continued availability for the Insurer's mission critical applications

Customer use case
 

Customer Challenge
An insurance provider needed to address gaps in their online collaboration environment that were causing significant communication issues. Because they are highly dependent on digital interactions, any disruption can have serious negative impacts on productivity and efficiency. The insurer needed to act fast, but was also looking for solutions to prevent these issues before they happen.

 

How Kyndryl helped
The Kyndryl Digital Workplace Services team provided a detailed analysis of the insurer's current platform and a plan to quickly address the software, network and new architectures needed to support their virtual work needs. Kyndryl and the insurer worked together to solve the immediate video conferencing challenge with minimal waste, knowing that the current tools would soon be replaced by a new collaboration suite. Through a readiness assessment, Kyndryl’s experts optimized investments in tools and systems that helped the insurer transition to the new platform.
