Globe deploys tech to support Filipino’s digital lifestyles

MANILA, PHILIPPINES — Telecommunications provider Globe Telecom rolled out services that support Filipinos’ digitally-inclined lifestyles. 

Globe recently deployed an online store for mobile gadgets and telco services, self-service applications for phone, data, and rewards monitoring, a convenient online payment service, and many more. In compliance with their cloud-first strategy, these apps are hosted in Amazon Web Services (AWS), its cloud service provider of choice.

According to the telco firm, they have taken into account the Philippines’ demand for digital services, noting that the average Filipino spends 4 hours and 7 minutes per day on social media sites.

Acquiring physical hardware to host an application typically takes months. When Globe put in place a cloud-first strategy, the timeline was significantly reduced into days. 

Globe, through their partner Stratpoint, initially deployed over 30 cloud professionals to handle and oversee the implementation, management, and support of the AWS environments for Globe’s projects in the pipeline.

A few months into the engagement, Globe already saw significant improvements in the process by shortening the average environment provisioning time by 67%. It also achieved zero percent project defect month-on-month and realized more than US$200,000 in savings in one year due to cloud optimization.

“Stratpoint has proven to be a superb business partner to Globe for some years now. Above and beyond the technical capability, they imbibed the ‘malasakit’ culture, which transformed their services from transactional to relational. Stratpoint being on our backside allows us to focus on creating more values and better experiences for our customers,” said RJ Mendiola, Globe’s Director for Operations and Maintenance Division, Infrastructure Technology and Services.
