How Getecsa helped Telefónica Movistar maintain their infrastructure with 99.9% availability

Need for infrastructure support

Telefónica Movistar, the second enterprise with more presence in Mexico for mobile telephony services, needed to acquire an administered service and of support for their IT infrastructure. For Telefónica, it was imperative that they had a ticket support service and to carry out activities in an established time.

They wanted to avoid rollbacks in the Movistar apps when they were sent to production, and with this, gain time in the Time-To-Market.

This is why the objective of the project was to provide a productive service to the infrastructure, that had the purpose of working as a spinal cord of the systems and of having an availability the 99.9% of the time 365 days a year

Productive support implemented by Getecsa

Getecsa implemented an attention scheme service N1 and N2 to attend incidents and requests. A black box audit was realized to each application before going into production, and the ones that did not pass the requirements, went back to Development with a list of findings and their possible solutions.

This is a cyclical service that is carried out day by day, minute by minute, so that the infrastructure is at 100%.

Additionally, work cells were launched for each of the areas in which Getecsa was providing support to the production. To achieve this, we started finding the ideal personnel for each of the cells, which work independently from the rest and have profiles of different levels; this way, the personnel rotation was avoided.

8 areas of administration, operation, and support to the infrastructure were implemented:

  • Unix Operative Systems.
  • Windows and VMware Operative Systems.
  • Databases.
  • Data Centers.
  • Batch Planification.
  • Storage Infrastructure.
  • Backup Infrastructure
  • Middleware.
