Case Study: Cxense ASA achieves faster global cloud deployment with IBM SoftLayer

Agilely delivers online services to customers worldwide with a SoftLayer hybrid cloud hosting solution

Cxense ASA faced the challenge of delivering its online personalization services on a traditional co-located hosting infrastructure. As the company expanded, it required a global hosting platform with a presence in key markets like Japan, which its existing solution could not provide. To overcome this, they turned to IBM and its SoftLayer cloud hosting service.

The solution involved implementing a SoftLayer hybrid cloud, provisioning bare metal servers in data centers in Washington D.C. and Tokyo. This gave IBM's customer a worldwide presence and the ability to deploy powerful servers on demand. The results were significant, with infrastructure provisioning time reduced by 98%, from three months to less than a day, greatly improving the company's agility.
