AstraZeneca Hybrid-Cloud Automation Case Study

This case study details AstraZeneca's implementation of hybrid-cloud automation using Morpheus Data's multi-cloud management platform. AstraZeneca, a global bio-pharmaceutical company, faced challenges with lengthy resource provisioning processes that took an average of 80 man-hours due to manual handoffs. To address this, the Global Infrastructure Services (GIS) division sought to streamline operations through automation. The deployment of Morpheus enabled push-button provisioning of new instances, significantly reducing deployment times from 80 hours to just 27 minutes for multiple servers. The study outlines the technologies involved, including VMware and various public cloud services, and emphasizes the benefits achieved, such as increased developer agility and reduced operational costs. Over the years, AstraZeneca has focused on automating processes to ensure compliance and improve efficiency, resulting in substantial savings and enhanced productivity. The case study serves as a practical example of how automation can transform IT operations in the bio-pharmaceutical sector.
