SoftLayer serves as the platform to support
Novitex’s growing business as part of a nearly $10-million
agreement
IBM (NYSE: IBM) and Novitex Enterprise Solutions today announced
that they have signed an estimated $10-million agreement for IBM to
provide cloud-based Infrastructure and Security services leveraging
Softlayer’s open, scalable and secure infrastructure to support
Novitex’s industry leading document outsourcing solutions.
Novitex, the industry-leading provider of the Integrated
Document Life Cycle™ (IDLC™) end-to-end service solutions, required
a flexible, scalable solution to support its rapid growth and
expanding offerings, while simultaneously consolidating a
distributed set of IT environments in a seamless, singular
infrastructure. Novitex also wanted to ensure data security,
privacy and compliance for their Fortune 500 clients in a world of
increasing security threats.
Novitex needed to deliver the highest level of security for the
IDLC services it provides to healthcare companies, financial
institutions, government entities, and other clients who have
rigorous security, privacy and regulatory compliance concerns.
Novitex required a strong partner who would ensure the company’s IT
environment was compliant with current and emerging regulatory
standards while still being scalable and flexible.
SoftLayer Offers Enterprise Scale Cloud
With SoftLayer, an IBM Company, providing cloud services,
Novitex has a highly available, reliable and secure cloud services
environment to meet the needs of its growing Fortune 500 client
base. Novitex clients also benefit from high availability with
built-in disaster recovery. IBM Security Services not only protects
data access, but provides deep layers of application security
through analytics and event monitoring.
“By leveraging SoftLayer cloud services, we will provide our
clients a state-of-the-art IT infrastructure with applications
tailored to meet their most challenging business needs,” said John
Visentin, Executive Chairman and CEO. “Our private cloud will offer
a robust, secure foundation for focused growth and digital
transformation with a faster time to market to achieve the most
cost-effective results for our clients.”
Novitex is using IBM’s Security and Monitoring solutions to
ensure the integrity and confidentiality of the most sensitive
client data. SoftLayer is scalable to meet Novitex’s clients’ needs
with the ability to rapidly provision workloads throughout its
Document Communication Centers around the United States.
As a result, clients’ jobs will be completed and service-level
agreements will be met regardless of whether there is a natural
disaster, a power outage, a system failure, or simple business
disruption.
“SoftLayer cloud services coupled with managed security
services, provides Novitex with the flexibility to grow and enable
its business to quickly and efficiently manage mission-critical
workloads within industries like healthcare and government. IBM’s
dynamic management services also give Novitex the ability to fine
tune its compute needs quickly,” said IBM General Manager of Cloud
Services, Jim Comfort. “Consequently, Novitex will be able to
optimize the IT environment and take advantage of the latest
technology available on the SoftLayer platform that enables our
clients to drive transformation for enterprise IT for the cloud
era.”
