Why did Kem One decide to migrate to the cloud?
Kem One aimed to replace its ageing IT infrastructure, which was spread over two data centers in the Lyon region. The company sought to migrate to the public cloud with minimal downtime and without the need to rewrite non-cloud-native applications. Additionally, they wanted to incorporate necessary virtualization technologies and ensure effective cost monitoring through FinOps mechanisms.
What were the results of the migration?
After migrating 280 virtual machines in real time to VMware Cloud on AWS, Kem One achieved a 26% reduction in infrastructure costs. The migration process also minimized downtime to less than 15 minutes for 900 SAP users, enhancing the company's agility and flexibility to quickly adapt infrastructure components based on development team needs and budget.
Kem One is the second largest PVC producer in Europe, generating over €900 million in revenue. The company's operations, which include salt extraction and PVC manufacturing, are primarily based in France.
