Rackspace Technology Accelerates Momentum with Customer Transformations on AWS
October 06 2020 - 11:05AM
Rackspace Technology™ (NASDAQ: RXT), a leading end-to-end
multicloud technology solutions company, today announced leading
innovative IT transformations to Amazon Web Services (AWS) for
customers, Humber College Institute of Technology and Advanced
Learning, Envizi, and Invotra.
Humber College, a publicly-funded college in Toronto, Ontario,
Canada, with help from AWS Premier Partner Onica, a Rackspace
Technology Company, was able to design, test, and implement a
production solution on AWS in just 10 days, making it possible for
students to access software from any device that is typically found
on campus in computer labs.
"We are really happy to have brought Onica on as our partner,”
said Ryan Burton, Director, Digital
Solutions, Humber College Institute of Technology & Advanced
Learning. “The team was not only able to produce a solution that
fit Humber’s accessibility, scalability, and performance
requirements, but it was also able to accomplish the task at an
unprecedented speed using Amazon AppStream 2.0. Onica’s efforts and
support have helped us provide academic stability to our students
during these challenging times, with minimal disruption."
Based in Australia, Envizi is a market leader in data and
analytics software for energy and sustainability and has been a
Rackspace Technology customer for over 9 years. Envizi began
working with Rackspace Technology in response to the need for an
experienced cloud partner to enable its international growth by
securely and seamlessly transforming from a dedicated environment
to AWS.
“Envizi’s business model and go-to-market strategy are built on
partnerships. Turning to Rackspace technology for advice on an
appropriate solution to support our growth was a natural
progression for us as our teams have been working together for
almost a decade,” said Bill Clasquin, Envizi’s CTO and Co-founder.
“When it came to cloud offerings, we determined that AWS was best
suited to support our processing loads and, with help from
Rackspace Technology, the lift and shift to AWS proceeded smoothly.
Our post-transition review demonstrated that we have achieved the
benefits we identified in our initial performance analysis along
with significant savings.”
Invotra, a UK-based SaaS provider of enterprise Intranet and
portal solutions, was challenged with managing a vast amount of
data from one of its largest customers. Invotra turned to Rackspace
Technology to help them design a scalable, cloud-native solution to
manage their vast user data, which included 95,000 users, 75
million visitor journeys, and over 350 million individual visitor
actions.
“Rackspace Technology provided invaluable direction and advice
throughout the project,” said Jonnie Russell, Chief Technology
Officer, Invotra. “Rackspace Technology supported Invotra in
designing a comprehensive solution integrating multiple AWS
services, which enabled us to capture, process, and persist
analytics log data at the scale we needed.”
"The key to our continued rapid growth and cloud adoption across
the market lies in the strength of innovative customers like
Envizi, Invotra, and Humber College," said Matt Stoyka, Chief
Solutions Officer, Rackspace Technology. “By working with AWS,
we’re always focused on driving trust, success, and Fanatical
Experience™ for our customers.”
In 2020, combined with Onica, Rackspace Technology has achieved
14 AWS Competency designations within the AWS Partner Network
(APN), along with 1,600 AWS Certifications. Most recently, Onica
attained the AWS Machine Learning Competency. This validated
designation differentiates Onica as an APN Partner that has
demonstrated expertise in building AI/ML solutions on AWS and has
helped organizations automate and innovate to solve their data
challenges and gain actionable outcomes.
