VMware Upgraded The Aging IT Infrastructure at JM Financial Asset Management
For any large organization to ensure seamless operations, a highly structured and reliable IT infrastructure plays a key role. For a major finance company that manages multiple portfolios and performs daily business transactions, the risk of experiencing huge losses in case of system failure or a security breach is unacceptable.
At JM Financial Asset Management, the need to update its outdated storage infrastructure with something more scalable, secure and easier to manage led them to VMware.
Read the customer story to learn how VMware helped the organization deploy a versatile platform that ensures cost-effective scalability, remote user access and reliable disaster recovery.
What challenges did JM Financial face with their IT infrastructure?
JM Financial was operating on an outdated IT infrastructure characterized by a traditional Storage Area Network (SAN) and Server Farm architecture. This setup made IT management difficult and limited future scalability. The existing infrastructure also restricted the full capabilities of several applications, hindering the company's ability to adopt new technologies like software-defined storage and data encryption.
How did VMware support JM Financial's IT transformation?
VMware provided a comprehensive solution that included the deployment of VMware vSphere® Enterprise Plus Edition™, VMware Horizon® 7 for desktop virtualization, and VMware vSAN™ for storage management. This integration allowed JM Financial to transition to a more scalable and efficient hyper-converged architecture, reducing their Total Cost of Ownership by 15% and enhancing user productivity through improved access to applications.
What security measures were implemented during the upgrade?
To enhance security during the upgrade, JM Financial implemented multiple measures, including multi-factor authentication. They also ensured compliance with strict data encryption requirements throughout the upgrade process, which was essential for maintaining the integrity and security of sensitive financial information.
