AGC Networks: Digital Transformation of the Entire Business

In today’s highly connected and digitized world, organizations are always on the lookout for IT partners that understand the rapidly changing technologies. These partners often deliver IT environment as a complete solution to maintain and support their on-going services. AGC Networks is one such provider that works with customers to provide integrated value to their customers’ organizations. “When enterprises approach us for digital transformation, we ensure that we are relevant to them for all their data center, networking, and security requirements before embarking on their digital journey,” says Sanjeev Verma, Executive Director and CEO of AGC Networks.

“We are increasingly seeing technology moving to the cloud. It is no more just a fad—the shift from traditional software models to the Internet has steadily gained momentum over the last decade. It promises new ways to collaborate everywhere, through mobile devices,” Verma explains. As AGC is a solutions integrator, it suggests a cloud solution for the customer depending on their requirements by looking at the business needs—be it a private cloud or hybrid cloud, with a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI). Being hyperconverged, AGC enables cloud-like economics at scale, without compromising on performance, reliability, and availability. Although HCI still an emerging data center technology, it is a software-centric approach which holds maximum potential for the bottom-line ROI and can help fulfill the promises of private and hybrid cloud environments.

By taking a consultative approach, AGC gives clients the optimal solutions that are tailored to the organizational setup. When organizations choose to go through the process of digital transformation, it is the entire journey that comes into play, not just the final outcome.

For this reason, AGC meets with the client and gets a complete understanding of the client’s needs and discusses a digital roadmap that incorporates the customer’s requirements.
With the data center and edge IT solution quadrant that AGC offers, it ensures that it meets all the customer’s data center, security, and networking requirements by designing and delivering solutions that are mutually agreed upon in the service level agreements (SLAs). There is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ solution because each industry vertical requires a different solution. AGC’s global exposure gives it an edge when offering solutions to the various industries by providing the industry’s best practices and executes the projects with certified technology experts.

“The weakest point in IT infrastructure can become critical when it comes to security,” asserts Verma. Securing the entire environment begins with securing endpoints, the network, data center hardware and applications to build a robust security framework. AGC takes the help of cybersecurity experts to assess customer infrastructure in some areas such as, vulnerability, penetration testing, compliance, secure access control, database prevention, to name a few before employing its solution. The company has invested in the latest security tools, resources and a world-class Global- Security Operations Center (G-SoC) to provide customers with end-to-end security.

In the era of fast moving cloud technology and digitization, AGC’s strength lies in its ability to deliver solutions seamlessly into its customers’ IT environments that are spread across nine countries. “We believe in continuing to deliver and safeguard the customer’s IT landscape and providing them with next-generation digital transformation platforms,” concludes Verma.
