What prompted Voltas to transition to the cloud?
Voltas faced several challenges operating in an on-premises environment, including rising costs, aging hardware, and projected increases in license renewal fees by 250% over three years. Additionally, outdated systems posed risks to reliability and performance, and the lack of an effective disaster recovery plan left critical applications vulnerable to cybersecurity threats. Recognizing the need for a future-ready technology strategy, Voltas decided to modernize its legacy systems through a cloud transformation.
How did Voltas ensure a smooth transition to the cloud?
Voltas prioritized zero disruption to operations during the transition to the cloud. After evaluating multiple options, they found Microsoft’s Azure VMware Solution to be the best fit due to its scalability, compatibility with existing applications, and advanced security features. The migration involved moving over 250 on-premises VMware applications to Azure, and despite occurring during a peak business period, the transition was completed seamlessly with no reported issues.
What benefits has Voltas experienced since migrating to the cloud?
Since migrating to the Azure VMware Solution, Voltas has expanded its cloud presence from 0% in 2022 to 60% in 2024. This transformation has led to significant benefits, including reduced capital expenditure, enhanced operational efficiency, and a 99.99% reduction in unplanned downtime. The cloud infrastructure has also allowed for faster deployment of virtual machines, improved cybersecurity posture, and greater agility in managing digital resources.
