A prominent digital commerce company spanning nearly 20 countries, boasting a diverse team of designers, marketers, creatives, data scientists, and software engineers, faced the task of resolving authentication issues within their DUO system. This initiative addressed authentication challenges for over 5,000 users and 3,000 Windows machines, encompassing ADFS, LDAP, DUO, Windows HELLO, and auto-enrolment.

Our team conducted a comprehensive assessment of the client's DUO implementation in collaboration with a senior engineer to address the authentication issues. A robust redesign of the authentication system was executed and rigorously tested to ensure seamless functionality. Furthermore, client-side administrators were actively involved in training and knowledge transfer sessions to equip them with the necessary skills to maintain the optimised design in the long term.

A prominent global manufacturer, facing challenges with the efficiency of its widely distributed manufacturing facilities due to an outdated data centre, sought a data centre refresh. The seamless transition from its current data centre to a new VMware on the Nutanix platform was identified as a critical priority to enhance operational capabilities across its global network of plants.

Aspire implemented ESXi hypervisor clusters, VMware vCenter, and the Nutanix AOS Acropolis Operating System, incorporating hardware alerting and remote console access. Additionally, remote management was established at both primary and disaster recovery sites, comprehensive environment documentation was provided to facilitate deployment, replication was configured, and distributed storage and encryption were set up to ensure a robust and secure infrastructure.

An outdated data center with end-of-life hardware was causing increasing operational inefficiencies, reliability concerns, and security risks for our energy utility client. As the infrastructure aged, performance degraded, leading to slower processing speeds, higher latency, and increased maintenance requirements. The outdated systems also lacked support for the latest security updates, leaving the environment vulnerable to cyber threats and potential compliance issues. Additionally, the limitations of the legacy hardware made it difficult to scale operations or integrate new technologies, restricting the organization’s ability to meet growing business demands. A comprehensive modernization initiative was essential to enhance efficiency, improve security, and ensure long-term infrastructure stability.

We executed a seamless migration process by utilizing Dell servers, VMware ESXi Hypervisor, and vCenter controller. This involved setting up the new infrastructure alongside the legacy equipment, deploying ESXi and vCenter on the latest hardware, transferring existing VMs from the old environment to the new one, configuring the networking settings, transitioning the new system online, and successfully switching over from the old production setup to the latest production environment.
