European IT firm Bull SAS tailor-makes private cloud with security assured
The research labs at Bull SAS – the European IT company that helps public sector organisations to optimise their IT architecture – handle development of critical defence and enterprise projects in Europe.
This meant the IT team which wanted scalability had a mighty task at hand – adopting private cloud while safeguarding sensitive data.
One of the objectives of Bull's IT team was to enable sharing of computing resources. This would help it generate hardware savings, provide more agility to IT infrastructure and keep its datacentre ready for the future.
And cloud computing services would help it meet this objective. But there was a hurdle. The cloud services would not only be used by teams that develop critical enterprise projects for Bull's customers, but also by its customers, which include public sector organisations, defence organisations and corporates in Europe.
