Bahrain Islamic Bank deploys Nutanix technology solutions to accelerate digital transformation. The bank ran Nutanix in a test environment for a year to understand the technology’s capabilities and experience its performance and reliability. The company has decided to invest in a complete solution that includes Nutanix Database-as-a-Service, Nutanix Files, Nutanix Data Protection, and Nutanix AHV.
With Nutanix’s broad suite of solutions, we’ve increased the performance and availability of our critical workloads by 70% and made backups 90% faster, completing in minutes. Database provisioning time has also been reduced from 5 days to less than 1 hour, and maintenance resource requirements have also been reduced by 75%.
Digitalization is a key focus for Bahrain Islamic Bank
Digitization is one of the five pillars on which the bank builds its highly regarded brand. For BisB to be a pioneer in this field, we need to continually invest in our IT infrastructure, which is a solid foundation on which to build innovation. It became clear that traditional physical servers and storage were no longer meeting the bank’s performance benchmarks, and maintenance was taking resources away from innovation. Therefore, the decision was made to overhaul the environment and implement a Nutanix solution. The bank previously required up to four dedicated engineers to perform database provisioning, but now he allocates only one resource.
A complete overhaul of our IT infrastructure using Nutanix significantly reduced the time required to provision databases. Ahmed Sami, Head of Services and Delivery at BisB, spoke about the speed improvements this brings. He said: “It used to take up to five days to provision a database cluster, but now we can have it up and running within an hour. When a business unit wants to develop and test a new application, we can help quickly. Yes, this ultimately means we can bring innovations to market faster. The impact on our ability to innovate is significant. These are valuable IT hours that drive business growth. You can free up your time to focus on higher value initiatives.”
