In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, companies must be agile and adaptable to stay ahead of the competition. For Globe, a leading telecommunications company in the Philippines, this means modernizing its IT infrastructure to improve operational efficiency and deliver a better customer experience. To achieve this goal, Globe has collaborated with Red Hat Open Innovation Labs to leverage the power of open source solutions and innovative practices.

The Challenge

Globe’s traditional IT infrastructure was struggling to keep up with the demands of a rapidly changing market. The company needed a more agile and scalable platform to support its growing customer base and expanding service offerings. After conducting a thorough evaluation of various solutions, Globe decided to partner with Red Hat to adopt a more modern and innovative approach to IT infrastructure.

• Improved operational efficiency: Globe has reduced test execution time by 80% and achieved 75% faster resource provisioning through zero-touch provisioning, self-healing, and auto-scaling.
• Enhanced customer experience: With a more agile and scalable platform, Globe can now deliver new services and features to its customers more quickly and efficiently.
• Increased innovation: The adoption of Red Hat OpenShift has laid the groundwork for Globe to explore new possibilities in AI and cloud-native development.
