Case Study: Oil and Gas Drilling Company achieves greater agility and competitive advantage with Hitachi Vantara's Cloud Accelerator Platform

Drilling Company Boosts Agility and Competitive Advantage With Enhanced Cloud Platform

Oil and Gas Drilling Company, a 3,000-employee operator known for offshore innovation and IoT telemetry on rigs, needed flexible infrastructure to support rapid digitalization and to onboard applications after an outsourced hosting contract ended. To simplify migration of critical workloads to its established Microsoft Azure environment and remediate three existing Azure landing zones, the company engaged Hitachi Vantara and its Cloud Services, leveraging the Hitachi Cloud Accelerator Platform.

Hitachi Vantara assessed the company’s Azure subscriptions against CIS benchmarks, identified gaps in encryption, firewall and audit processes, and executed an agreed remediation and migration plan within a two-week window. Using the Hitachi Cloud Accelerator Platform to automate onboarding, policy and controls, and by transferring operational knowledge to the internal team, Hitachi Vantara reduced migration risk and time, accelerated provisioning of applications and Azure services, and delivered measurable benefits: improved productivity, agility and data quality, stronger security and compliance, and a strengthened competitive advantage.
