This large Australian F&B company had numerous business reasons for deploying IPv6, such as enabling new tools and apps, communicating with other IPv6 users and clients, and also extending connectivity to sensors and other IoT devices. I had to redesign the network structures to get the best out of IPv6. We accounted for the architectures of both the Internet-facing and LAN resources to avoid multiple migrations. We didn't get rid of DMZ. We are in the process of performing manual configuration on the servers. IPv6 deployment was a solution that will simplify their network and reduce the cost of operating it.

As with many enterprises, the IT team of a pharma company in Amsterdam grew tired of the limitations of MPLS services. I decided to implement a zero-touch SD-WAN appliance in three locations alongside the existing MPLS circuit. I routed the firewall traffic onto a Private Cloud and provided Security as a service that simplified the deployment, and authentication process, and improved efficiency, and security. Appropriate policies apply at the initial sign-in. Besides providing a more Agile infrastructure, they experienced fast response with greater visibility into the network at a fraction of the cost.

For a women-only non-profit startup that promoted financial independence and women empowerment at the grassroots level in India, I designed a small office. I had to keep the expenses low. A standard setup with a router, a switch, IP phones, biometrics, power backup, CCTV, and thin clients with broadband. I migrated the web application from a local server to AWS and provisioned virtual machines for scalability and better economics. The ultimate goal was to keep the cost low until the business reaches a break-even point or realize a profit. The total cost savings was 29.25%.
