MayTalal Abu-Ghazaleh Global Consolidates on Enterprise-Grade Virtualization Solution
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and
Amman, Jordan – Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Global (TAG.Global), through its ICT
Department, has recently finished implementing an enterprise virtualization platform
in cooperation with Nutanix, a leader in hybrid multicloud computing, to
improve infrastructure performance and scalability.
The decision was taken to
update the Organization’s virtualization infrastructure which was initially
built under the direction of HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, founder and chairman of
TAG.Global, fifteen years ago to implement private cloud services to all of the
TAG.Global’s businesses and services throughout offices across the globe.
Mr. Khaldon Atieh, TAG.Global
ICT Executive Director, said, “After great deliberation and careful planning,
we took the decision to upgrade our current cloud offering by implementing
Nutanix AHV. Our growing number of offices and greater demand for ICT services
as a result of the digital transformation we are currently undergoing, meant
that we had to look into streamlining operations and implement a scalable
solution to continue delivering reliable ICT services to our 110+ offices
around the world.”
Delivering ICT services was a
challenge due to the three-tier infrastructure architecture implemented in
TAG.Global which was becoming cumbersome to administer and manage.
Mr. Khaldon Atieh, added,
“TAG.Global relies heavily on ICT for its daily operations. We must ensure that
we are constantly able to deliver reliable services at all times to keep
business-critical applications operational. This was becoming challenging using
a traditional three-tier architecture which was starting to introduce greater
management complexity. Moving to Nutanix AHV will allow us to boost performance
across all our applications as well as introduce greater security and
scalability across all systems.”
He went on to say,
“Previously, we would spend considerable time and resources on upgrades and
updates and had to constantly keep track of license renewals. With Nutanix AHV,
we can now simplify management and expand our environment with ease.”
Implementing the new solution
has given TAG.Global’s ICT Department the confidence to move forward and look
into establishing public cloud services for customers, which will include
Network-as-a-Service, Solution-as-a-Service, and website hosting offerings.
“We are very proud that our virtualization
solution has improved performance of TAG.Global’s mission-critical applications
and reduced operational complexities, and thus played an important role in the
digital transformation initiatives of the Group. We look forward to building on
the business relationship and helping the Group as their digitization plans
evolve in future,” concluded Mr. Mohammad Abulhouf, Senior Sales Director KSA,
