Globe and Red Hat, Inc., the world's leading provider of open source solutions, today announced a collaboration to modernize Globe's IT infrastructure with Red Hat Open Innovation Labs for greater agility, scalability and innovation that will help Globe improve operational practices to deliver a new and improved customer experience.
During the Open Innovations Lab residency, Globe's engineers worked closely with Red Hat to integrate open source technologies including Red Hat OpenShift, the industry's leading hybrid cloud application platform powered by Kubernetes, DevOps methodologies and innovative practices including an immersive approach to help Globe tackle challenges in operational efficiency, developer productivity, observability, upskilling and cross-team collaboration.
Through this collaboration, the Globe teams migrated the first application modules to Red Hat OpenShift faster, and quickly learned to fully utilize its features, created a cross-functional team and established new operational processes. This laid the groundwork for scaling up the platform and migrating the first full application to Red Hat OpenShift over the next six months. Additional benefits for Globe:
As Globe continues its transition from a traditional telecom company to a technology-driven enterprise, the adoption of Red Hat OpenShift provides the foundation for their ultimate goal of providing better customer experiences through a resilient, stable application platform.
Globe is committed to achieving operational excellence by evolving tools, processes and people to adhere to best practices and standards across the organization. Its vision is to become a self-sustaining organization that is robust, flexible and adaptive to changes in the digital landscape.
