Challenge

The client is a global sports media and betting platform. The focus of the business is to provide sports scores, live scores and betting for sports fans. For its operations in Bulgaria, the company is legally obliged to deploy its systems and store data about its users on the territory of Bulgaria, as well as to submit reports to government institutions. The main criteria are 100% uptime of their systems and low latency for connectivity services. Their initial intention is to deploy their own equipment, for the purchase of which they need the assistance of a local partner. The company turns to Evolink after a recommendation and after extensive discussions, decides to compare the costs of co-locating their own equipment in an Evolink data center and for a private cloud solution from Evolink.

Solution

Evolink has a number of other successful projects combining the supply and installation of equipment together with co-location in its data centers. However, for the specific purposes of the sports media, the technical team recommended a private cloud solution as more suitable, which would simultaneously satisfy both the legal requirements and the client's needs for a cost-effective and flexible solution.

The client received offers for both options – for the purchase and collocation of equipment in Evolink's data center and an offer for a cloud solution based on the Evolink Secure Sphere Cloud platform with a fully protected and isolated IT environment.

The private cloud solution proposal – Evolink Secure Sphere Cloud, was preferred due to its flexibility, reliability and excellent price.

In addition, Evolink provided Internet access, firewalls (NGFW) and the necessary direct connections from the client's private cloud to the National Revenue Agency, according to their specific requirements.
