The Challenge
As an infrastructure services company that customers rely on for 24 x 7 availability, Webscale requires real-time access to data as a critical resource to understand the health of each customer’s site performance. Yet, gaining central insights from the company’s multiple tools and disparate data sets was proving to be a challenge. The tools required login and data analysis for each customer instance, which was a manual, time-consuming effort that consumed 500 hours per month. “As a global company, we wanted to scale our data analysis capabilities and equip our teams with real-time observational insights. We set out with the goal to gain a centralized data lake from a solution that would enable us to build infrastructure monitoring, alerting and in-depth intelligence about our infrastructure and our customer performance,” said Nithyanand (Nith) Mehta, VP and GM at Webscale.
The Solution
To gain a centralized and scalable solution for much-needed infrastructure monitoring, Webscale evaluated multiple application performance monitoring and observability solutions. Following careful consideration of the company’s requirements, Webscale selected Sumo Logic based on several factors, including price, flexibility and ease of use. “Sumo Logic gave us a great combination of providing a comprehensive, multitenant solution to support our many customers, as well as easy adoption. The solution’s ease of use let us ramp up quickly to experience a fast time-to-value,” said Mehta. Webscale unlocked the power of Sumo Logic’s observability with application monitoring, analytics, and custom dashboards to drive daily operations for the site reliability engineers (SRE), support and customer success management (CSM) teams. As a result, Webscale is experiencing several favorable business outcomes: Holistic, insight-driven troubleshooting and diagnosis—at scale. Moving from manual analysis of disparate data sets to Sumo Logic’s automated and holistic analytics provides Webscale with an effective and fast process to understand how the company’s and each customer’s infrastructure is running. As Dhanush Suhas, Lead SRE for Webscale, puts it, “Sumo Logic serves as the heart of our customer-facing operations, allowing us to see everything in one place and view specific use cases and issues on a day-to-day basis,” also noting, “We’ve built metric dashboards that show us the health of the system and trending details on how it’s changing over time. It’s really easy for our SRE team to look at what the issue is and troubleshoot the next steps.”

Digital Transformation of Atlanta Grout & Tile: An IoT Case Study
Atlanta Grout & Tile, a Tile, Stone & Grout restoration company based in Woodstock, Georgia, was facing challenges with its traditional business model. Despite steady growth over the years, the company was falling behind the web revolution and missing out on the opportunity to tap into a new consumer base. They were using independent software from different vendors for each of their department information and workforce management. This resulted in a lot of manual work on excel and the need to export/import data between different systems. This not only increased overhead costs but also slowed down their response to clients. The company also had to prepare numerous reports manually and lacked access to customer trends for effective business decision-making.

7-Eleven Philippines, a pioneer of 24-hour convenience stores in the country, was facing challenges with its customer support system.

The company had no transparency into the vendor's analytics and could not validate their reports. They also had no visibility into the volume of calls, number of abandoned calls, etc. due to the use of the vendor’s telephony solution. This lack of control and visibility into customer support led the team to decide to bring the entire function in-house. They began exploring helpdesk solutions that would enable them to build a strong in-house support team.
