Infotech Lead India: Tata AIA Life Insurance Company has selected VMware virtualization and cloud infrastructure technology to help the company reduce capital and operating costs.
As part of its journey to the cloud, Tata AIA Life Insurance Company has deployed VMware vSphere to virtualize the company’s IT infrastructure.
The VMware deployment has helped Tata AIA Insurance Company consolidate its IT infrastructure from more than 90 servers to 10 servers, helping the company save in capital and operational expenditure.
Tata AIA Insurance Company has invested in a disaster recovery solution to protect its IT infrastructure and data with VMware vCenterTM Site Recovery Manager.
“As one of India’s leading life insurance companies, our priority is to optimize our IT support services and invest those savings back in the business to offer our customers a better experience. After evaluating options available, we were confident that VMware could help us achieve these goals,” said Samrat Das, chief information officer, Tata AIA Life Insurance Company.
Optimizing IT agility can differentiate Indian life insurance companies in a highly competitive market with innovative products and customer-centric service offerings. IT will help life insurance companies to increase their share of the Indian insurance pie.
“The highly competitive life insurance market in India requires players to be agile and to be able to quickly respond to changing market dynamics, while saving costs and meeting business objectives,” said T Srinivasan, managing director, VMware India & SAARC.
VMware has empowered large, mid-sized and small enterprises in India to realize the benefits of increased agility, performance and scalability of their IT environments.
