Case Study: Artnet streamlines mission-critical cloud infrastructure with itopia

itopia empowers Artnet to streamline mission-critical cloud infrastructure on GCP

Artnet, the leading online resource for the international art market, needed a simpler way to manage distributed employees and mission-critical applications as remote work expanded during the COVID-19 pandemic. The company wanted to move away from complex, on-premise business continuity measures and reduce the risk and overhead of keeping critical information on local hardware, so it turned to itopia’s cloud automation and orchestration solution.

With itopia, Artnet deployed and managed mission-critical desktops and apps on Google Cloud through a single unified control panel, making it easier for IT to administer Windows workloads and scale infrastructure on demand. The shift to the cloud reduced hardware costs, improved scalability, lowered latency for remote users, and supported Artnet’s effort to shrink its on-premise data center footprint while securing and delivering proprietary applications quickly and seamlessly.
