"Our IT modernization and data protection solutions allow us to deliver clients various SLA/SLO offerings that align well to needs of their business by properly balancing performance and cost," explains Enrique Velasco, Managing Director of Sandz Solutions Philippines. The firm's continuous cycle of pure consumption-based agility model helps clients scale maximum capacities in both their productivity and profitability.
As a key differentiator, its private cloud IaaS/PaaS is offered at zero capex to clients and is based on three critical pillars of enterprise positioning, agility/consumption model and regular infrastructure upgrade, and fully managed service 24/7 for 365 days. In addition, Sandz's service offers its clients several tiers, from the best RTO with the highest cost all the way to the longest RTO with the lowest cost. Clients have the flexibility to choose among these SLA tiers (Cold/Warm/Hot). The underpinning process is its team's ability to dynamically provision compute/memory resources based on the criticality of those applications and guarantees 100 percent uptime in such conditions.
To further illustrate the efficacy of Sandz's solutions, a global car manufacturer intended to replace their legacy hypervisor, as it limited them with its rigid five-year capex model, constant risky migration, and forklift refreshes. Sandz's IT modernization and data protection solutions helped the client seamlessly upgrade their legacy system's speed, scalability, and process while enabling new services for improved business agility. Owing to the company's Cloud IaaS solution, the client was able to successfully future-proof their cloud-native journey of all their business platforms from systems to frameworks, ready to evolve to meet the demands of digital-native consumers.
With internet speeds and uptime reliability reaching an acceptable level in the early 2000s, managed service providers have played an integral part in the technology market. However, as hardware commoditized and profit margins on product resales eroded, the transition to a model known for predictable, recurring revenue streams screamed progress. A natural progression for technology resellers, Sandz expanded its business beyond hardware sales to generate recurring revenue and continue to evolve rapidly within the complexity of today's technology business landscape. The company is a subsidiary of Kronologi Asia Berhad, Asia's leading authority in cutting-edge enterprise data management solutions listed on the ACE Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (0176/KRONO). With Kronologi Asia Berhad's corporate strategy providing a conducive business environment, Sandz is set to deliver growth while ensuring they generate sufficient cash flow to invest in the near future.
