Enabling Secure, Compliant, and Scalable Cloud Infrastructure for a Global Manufacturing Leader

Enabling Secure, Compliant, and Scalable Cloud Infrastructure for a Global Manufacturing Leader

0
A global retail manufacturer aimed to modernize its IT infrastructure to meet strict industry regulations (PCI DSS, GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2), support critical manufacturing and retail systems (ERP, MES, PLM, SCM, inventory management, CAD/CAM), and optimize costs while enhancing agility and security.

Key Challenges

  • Security & Compliance: Required a secure platform to host applications and data while meeting industry regulatory standards.
  • Latency & Agility: High latency between globally distributed sites and data centers caused operational delays and hampered real-time decision-making.
  • Scalability: On-premises systems lacked the flexibility to scale with dynamic production and retail demands.
  • IP & Data Residency: Required strict controls for protecting intellectual property (PLM, CAD) and enforcing data residency.
  • Vulnerable OT/IT Systems: SCADA and MES systems became increasingly vulnerable as operational and IT systems merged.
  • Disaster Recovery: Limited DR readiness with long RTO/RPO, posed business continuity risks.
  • Unified Security: No centralized security framework for production and enterprise systems.
  • Cost Optimization: Sought to reduce total cost of ownership and improve IT operational efficiency.
