The effects of the coronavirus on technology will be studied for years to come. The ways people responded and new directions companies took are creating a new normal. IT leaders were forced to build more robust, resilient, secure data systems that support remote working. Global IT service providers were on the front lines to help businesses take on challenges brought by the pandemic. Wipro, based in Bangalore, India, touch more than a million users. When a million users needed to suddenly work from home, Wipro made that happen even though they, too, were working from home. Wipro advises companies to take a holistic approach to manage the technical challenges of enabling remote workers during and after the global health crisis. “There is a huge urgency to reimagine the workspace,” said Satish Yadavalli, vice president for global cloud and infrastructure services (CIS) at Wipro Limited. “Because of the lockdown, none of our finance folks could come to the office,” Yadavalli said. “So, we had to deliver them access to all mission-critical ERP and financial tools from home. Within 12 hours, we were able to enable access to all these applications safely and securely to all our finance executives.” Follow the enterprise cloud tech revolution at The Forecast by Nutanix.
