IIHT Cloud: With Dell's solutions, Indian training provider achieves 65% growth in customer base

There is a growing need to provide graduates with source-intensive IT certification programs that can eliminate the high learning curve during employment and ensure seamless business continuity. Also, many organizations want e-learning environments to provide hands-on training scenarios.

Like most IT training organizations, IIHT Cloud Solutions Pvt. Ltd., a group company of IIHT Limited and one of the leading IT education providers in India, was struggling to maximize reach across geographies and at the same time provide anytime, anywhere hands-on learning. Keeping pace with the latest software versions and the required infrastructure was another challenge for IIHT. It found this especially true while providing realistic scenarios for cloud and virtualization professionals. IIHT turned to Dell to enable them to deliver Learning-as-a-Service to internal training centers and enterprise customers based on a cost-effective IT training model.

Enabling IIHT to seamlessly provide Learning-as-a-Service solutions

Dell designed a software defined networking (SDN) approach to its cloud services built on Dell Networking core switches, Dell PowerEdge servers and Dell PowerVault storage. With this, IIHT has been able to deliver a cost-effective training environment, along with attractive pricing models for enterprises. Dell built a solution that:

> Is enterprise class functional

> Makes hardware incidental

> Seamlessly integrates with IIHT's existing system

> Operates in real time situations

IIHT, being an early adopter of the SDN approach, has gained 65 per cent growth in its customer base within the last six months. What's more, when demand increases, the solution can effectively scale up to meet the projected global demand for Learning-as-a-Service.

The company currently has a head start on the market of around three years and has achieved a 30 per cent reduction in the cost structure required for delivering e-learning. Dell has therefore, proved to be the right technology partner that will enable IIHT achieve its goals and revolutionize e-learning services.
