Case Study: Smartgames Technologies Ltd achieves faster time-to-market with automated, secure networking using VMware

Smartgames leave nothing to chance in maintaining competitive edge in online lottery industry

Smartgames Technologies, the shared‑services IT provider for ZEAL Network SE Group’s online lottery business, faced an outdated datacenter that slowed production cycles, increased administrative overhead and hampered its ability to quickly launch new products. In a fast‑moving, competitive market the company needed to speed up provisioning, boost efficiency and reduce infrastructure complexity to meet business unit demands.

Smartgames implemented an enterprise software‑defined datacenter using VMware vSphere, NSX and vSAN to automate VM provisioning, apply micro‑segmentation security and centrally manage network services. The result: deployment times fell from weeks to hours (the full production cycle can now be under 20 minutes), administrative load decreased, engineers focus on higher‑value work, and the company gained a scalable, secure platform to get new products to market faster.
