Business challenge

Some of the world’s largest corporations, as well as IBM itself, depend on IBM

Cloud Identity Service for user authentication to critical cloud, mobile and the

Internet of Things (IoT) applications.

— Two data centers in the US, two data centers in Europe,

12 hosts each, ~700 VMs

Problem

— Stability issues upon migrating to new hardware along with

upgrade to vSphere 6.0 and vSAN 6.2

Needs

— Quickly re-establish stability and ensure high availability

— Get back to innovation as opposed to issue resolution and maintenance

— Future-proof
