Ensono builds BSI AWS environment for business-critical application in just 16 days

BSI (British Standards Institution) works with over 80,000 clients in 182 countries worldwide, helping them adopt and cultivate the habits of best practice that enable excellence. BSI standards have been honed over decades of collaboration with industry experts, government bodies, trade associations, and businesses of all sizes.

Microsoft SharePoint is essential to BSI’s digital workspace strategy, but the existing platform was old and inflexible. As a rapidly growing organisation with increasingly globalised communities, BSI had outgrown its U.K.-centric data model and required global capability from its business-critical Microsoft application.

Ensono migrated SharePoint onto the AWS platform, helping BSI take the first step in its hybrid IT strategy to refresh infrastructure for business-critical applications. Ensono was able to create the AWS environment in just 16 days, enabling extensive time for application configuration, testing, and migration prior to the go-live date.

Ensono’s solution removed the capacity constraints of BSI’s legacy platform and provided a flexible, reliable environment to grow the use of its SharePoint application. Ensono’s proactive monitoring and management gives BSI complete peace of mind in the operational integrity and security of its SharePoint application.

By adopting a hybrid IT operating model, BSI is now well positioned to take advantage of the flexibility and cost savings offered by the public cloud.
