Case Study: Moneyweb achieves a flexible, scalable, high-availability cloud platform and insourced DevOps with VMware vCloud

Strategic Business Redesign Leads Moneyweb to Embrace the Cloud

Moneyweb, a Johannesburg-based financial media group and publisher of Moneyweb.co.za, faced growing traffic and a need to modernise its infrastructure. Its legacy, hardware-bound systems were inflexible, DevOps was outsourced, and the company needed a cost-effective, manageable platform that could scale quickly for traffic spikes and future innovation.

Moneyweb migrated to a highly available VMware vCloud solution hosted by RSAWEB, insourced its DevOps team, and moved off dedicated hardware. The result is a secure, scalable, pay‑as‑you‑use private hosted environment with better visibility and manageability, faster response to traffic and development demands, integrated market-data delivery, and a platform that supports new products and content initiatives.
