Wipro builds Private Cloud for OnStream

Wipro Technologies, the Global Information Technology, Consulting and Outsourcing business of Wipro Limited (NYSE: WIT) has successfully built a private cloud for OnStream Utility Metering Services Limited. OnStream provides gas and electricity metering solutions in United Kingdom. OnStream is part of National Grid Group, which is one of the largest energy delivery businesses in the world and the largest investor-owned utility in United Kingdom. Wipro which has a matured set of cloud offerings initiated the private cloud project for OnStream in October 2010.

"With the commencement of a smart metering roll out in the UK and the need for a flexible dual fuel smart metering offering, OnStream embarked on a transformational programme through 2010 and into 2011, designed to improve service quality, improve business efficiencies and deliver a step-change in customer experience which would be at par or better than offered by home-visit operations in other sectors." said Declan McLaughlin, Head of Transformation at OnStream.

As a part of this programme, OnStream replaced its existing legacy IT infrastructure with a new service driven model using a private cloud approach. This approach aligned the IT architecture to be more flexible in functionality and configuration while at the same lowering operational cost and improving responsiveness.
