Look how wonderful work we have done!
To accelerate completion of the IT carve-out, TTR made sure all pieces were in place to start the migration as soon as the acquisition closed.
Track 1: End-User Computing and Mobility
Design, creation, and deployment of desktop images and technologies.
Consolidation and migration of all business and desktop applications.
Implementation of MS-Intune with Autopilot, enabling global end-users to run the brand-new workstation image on their desktops and mobile devices with automated software deployments and updates.
Track 2: Microsoft 365 Migration
Implementing a new Microsoft 365 tenant, allowing end-users to run a suite of cloud-based Microsoft products that includes email, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams.
Selection, design, and migration of voice services to Microsoft Teams.
Track 3: Networking
Design, planning, and migration of a segregated LAN/WAN network.
New network and telecom circuits connecting global locations across the U.S., France, Germany, U.K., Netherlands, and China to the cloud platform.
Implementation of an end-user VPN solution.
Track 4: Server Migration
Creation of a hybrid server infrastructure. That included migration of hundreds of AWS EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances from the seller’s on-premise VMWare environment.
Track 5: Security Tools Implementation
Without any security technologies to migrate from the seller’s environment, TTR recommended the implementation of multiple solutions designed to protect users and infrastructure, including:
Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) to add a layer of protection to the sign-in process.
Email security using Proofpoint technologies.
Microsoft Defender for Cloud to detect vulnerabilities in servers and workstations.
Microsoft Defender URL Content Filtering to protect against advanced web-based threats and data theft while on and off the corporate network.
Microsoft Defender antivirus monitoring for nearly 700 computers, servers, and mobile devices.
Knowbe4 Security Awareness Training for end-users.
Solution & Approach
After a comprehensive discovery and planning process that included a full inventory, the TTR team used its 10+ years of extensive IT expertise to design a new infrastructure platform and network redesign, separation, and migration strategy.
While the selling corporation kept its infrastructure on-premises, the separating company had already undergone an AWS cloud implementation that predominantly hosted its LIMS solution for clients. Moving the new company servers to the existing, modernized cloud platform – while strengthening the architecture and security – was the right strategy for the carve-out.
