Case Study: State IT Agency achieves 11-day-to-30-minute infrastructure provisioning with CloudBolt Software

State IT Agency Reduces Infrastructure Provisioning From 11 Days to 30 Minutes Using CloudBolt

State IT Agency, responsible for supporting 2,800+ applications and securing 5.5 million user records, struggled with VMware vRealize Automation (vRA)’s steep learning curve, high resource and professional services needs, and VMware-centric limitations that blocked efficient self-service hybrid cloud provisioning. Seeking a simpler, vendor-agnostic solution for private cloud, AWS, and Azure, the agency engaged CloudBolt Software and trialed CloudBolt CMP.

CloudBolt Software deployed CloudBolt CMP—up and running in hours—and delivered a six-week proof-of-concept that achieved more than two years of work with vRA: IaaS builds dropped 63% (from 40 to 15), infrastructure delivery shrank from 11 days to 30 minutes, partner agencies went from zero to 25 self-service builds, teams touching a server build went from six to zero, and the agency saved about $1 million in licensing, aided by CloudBolt’s 200+ plug-ins and vendor-agnostic integrations.
