The Challenge
A leading US-based provider of advanced network communications and technology solutions was grappling with the challenges of rapid network expansion across multiple locations. This expansion resulted in a complex network with data scattered across various systems and geographies, creating data silos and limiting visibility. The disjointed data hindered the company's ability to gain business intelligence, which in turn affected their decision-making speed and progress. Inefficient resource utilization, ineffective network troubleshooting, and delays in new network rollouts were some of the issues that arose from this situation. The client's situation was further complicated by multiple acquisitions over time, which led to heterogeneous systems that complicated the reporting and analytics of their network data. The scattered data sets from various disjointed systems made it difficult to trace the customizations done on their network systems, jeopardizing the efficiency of their network engineering team, Network Operation Centre, and business users.
